These Kirkwood Chicken Breast Fillets make a restaurant-quality sandwich, and they’re way cheaper than a drive-thru!
Everyone loves a hot, juicy chicken sandwich, right? Unfortunately, there are a lot of dry, flavorless, tough chicken sandwiches out there. That’s why we were so interested in all the talk surrounding these frozen chicken fillets available at Aldi. People are comparing them to popular chicken sandwiches from Chick-fil-A and Popeye’s!
Kirkwood Chicken Breast Fillets
You will find this product in the freezer case at Aldi, in a distinctive red bag. These breaded chicken fillets are sold in a 24-ounce package. Because they are sold by the weight and not the piece, the amount of chicken fillets inside the bag does vary. Most bags contain five or six pieces of chicken.
These frozen chicken fillets are a regular buy at Aldi, which means you should be able to find them in your store year-round. Our recent purchase cost $5.99, and we received six pieces in the bag.
Are these chicken fillets good?
In short, yes. Wait, YES! That’s better.
We found these Aldi breaded chicken fillets to be high quality. These are not a chopped and formed chicken patty, they are a whole, thinly sliced chicken breast. The breading is thin and well-seasoned. The meat stays moist and tender after preparation.
How do you use these Aldi breaded chicken fillets?
We prepared our Kirkwood Chicken Breast Fillets in the oven, according to package directions. Preparation takes about 25 minutes, and we found the fillets were heated through well and not at all soggy. Alternatively, you could prepare these in an air fryer for a crispier finish.
Combined with Aldi’s Brioche Buns, these truly make a restaurant-quality sandwich. The first time we tried these, we followed this Copycat Aldi Chick-fil-A Sandwich. For a separate meal, we added Swiss cheese and Deutsche Kuche sweet mustard to the sandwich. Both chicken sandwich versions were a hit with the whole family!
We figured our cost per sandwich at less than $2, including the toppings — a big savings over a drive-thru meal.

My 14 year old son was just eating your Kirkwood chicken nuggets and found glass in the bag.

This is not actually Aldi. You need to contact the company.

I cannot find these fillets. Did ALDI stop carrying them?
Sarah
They’re very popular and so are hard to find. It took me a month to catch some in stock!

I looked today and was told they don’t carry them in California but they have the other color bags.

I Really am DISAPPOINTED how the Quailty of your Chicken wing portions have Declined since the Covid-19 Crisis,, I REALLY WAS A Dedicated Customer. I RECENTLY BOUGHT 3 BAGS OF YOUR FROZEN WINGS AS USUAL. The Bag Has Larger Mixed sizes and Some of them Were Bruised & Has Discoloration !!. I Usually Only Buy my Wings from Aldi. But The last time I Purchased Them,, the Bags of Wings were different,, the chicken Looked Like they were injected and Not Properly Cared for. I’M SORRY THAT IT’S NOW DIFFERENT. I now have to find a Better Chicken wing Provider

This is a blog about chicken from Aldi. It is not Aldi or the chicken manufacturer. May want to express this to Aldi.
