Food Discovery Box:
Arroz Con Pollo

Go on a culinary adventure with the Deli Star Food Discovery Box. Each box highlights a variety of Deli Star proteins in some of our favorite dishes.

This month, we created an Arroz Con Pollo dish featuring the Deli Star Pollo Asado (Southwest Chicken Thigh) protein. Arroz Con Pollo, which means “chicken with rice,” boasts Spanish roots and is a beloved classic throughout Latin America. As Southwest/Tex-Mex style cuisine continues to captivate taste buds across the U.S., there’s a growing appetite for innovative dishes. Our Pollo Asado Chicken Thigh (also available as a Chicken Breast!) featured in this Food Discovery box is here to satisfy this craving with its versatility in a wide array of culinary creations–from center-of-plate options to tacos.

The Food Discovery Box isn’t just about trying new foods; it’s an invitation to spark new menu inspirations, explore bold tastes, and embark on food quests.
