Lemon & Herb Breast | SHICKEN

I wish all vegan chicken had our flavour!

I know vegan chicken and meat alternatives do not always have the best reputation, but ours is different (let me convince you).

Our meals are made in our own kitchen using our 80 year old family recipes, have won three Great Taste awards, and can be found in Costco, Morrisons and other stores across the UK, Europe and the US.

Give them a try, start with our bestselling Tikka Kebab Skewers (very rich Tikka flavour), then add a Butter Curry (creamy & comforting) too.

I can’t decide for you. But I can tell you a story we now call:

“cheat on chicken”

The reactions that surprise us most often come from meat eaters.

“Can’t believe the texture and flavour.”

“Wait, this is plant-based?”

A few years ago, at an exhibition in Canada 🇨🇦, two men walked past our stand. One (who claimed to hate plant-based food!) looked at the food and said:

“Is this plant-based? Must be horrible.”

He had eaten meat his whole life, so Satvinder handed him a freshly cooked Tikka Kebab.

He tried one, still muttering “disgusting”.

Then he took another.

After a few silent seconds, he looked at us and said:

“I feel like I’ve cheated on my wife.”

We had to ask why.

He explained that it tasted so close to meat, with so much flavour, that eating it felt like cheating on everything he had always known.

A bizarre comparison, yes. But the phrase has stayed with our team ever since.

That is what SHICKEN aims to do: make food that vegans and meat eaters can enjoy around the same table.

SHICKEN might not save the day, but it can certainly save the meal!

In London — let’s say Shoreditch — a curry can cost around £11.95, sometimes closer to £15. Add service charge, transport and all that walking, and dinner can easily reach £30. Ouch!

Our curries are £4.99, and our kebab skewers work out at around £1.30 each before discounts. Buy a bulk pack with a discount & seasonal offer, though, and it can work out at

A curry £3, each kebab roughly 75p!

We send out vouchers regularly too, so sign up to our newsletter.

Keep a few in the freezer (also: our meals are suitable for home freezing, 12+ months life!), pop them in the microwave or oven, and dinner is done in around 10 minutes.

We offer a replacement guarantee if anything arrives damaged in transit.

Send us two or three photos showing:

1. The damaged item
2. A clear photo of the delivery label
3. The outer delivery box, if it is also damaged

No, you don’t need to. Cook it straight from frozen! Curry ready in 7 and kebabs ready in 20!

Absolutely. Our meals. kebabs, curries, pieces, desserts and more, are really versatile. Serve them on a platter, with rice, naan, chutney, salad or whatever else you fancy.

And yes, you can claim you made them. Remember to hide the packaging!

Imagine cooking a big batch for a market, a gathering or the freezer. You sear the ingredients, add cumin and other spices, simmer everything, pack it up, chill it and freeze some for later.

Technically, that is processed. But processed does not automatically mean unhealthy. Washing, cooking, packing, chilling and freezing can all help with safety, shelf life and affordability.

Our Tikka Kebabs, for example, are low in sugar and saturated fat, with no artificial flavouring.

We use soya and peas for natural protein, along with our spice blend for that rich tikka flavour. Healthy, yummy and convenient!

Our meals are carefully balanced with spice. Most have a gentle heat, and you can shop by spice level to find your favourite, whether that means you prefer something sweet and rich, deeply savoury or like it properly HOT 😊!
