As demand increases, New Orleans-based Zatarain’s Smoked Sausage is expanding its product line with the Blackened Seasoned Chicken flavor, inspired by the Louisiana Cajun dish blackened chicken.
The addition joins the brand’s Andouille and Cajun smoked sausage product line with distribution through select grocery stores around the country.
Since launching the line of products in early 2019, distribution has expanded through Kroger, Walmart, Sam’s Club and Food Lion stores nationwide, as well as many other independent regional grocers around the country.
“People inherently trust the Zatarain’s brand. They know that when you cook with a Zatarain’s product, it is going to amp up the flavor of the dish and make meals more fun and exciting,” said Claude Davis, principal scientist for Zatarain’s.
“It’s exciting to see how people have become attached to our Andouille and Cajun smoked sausages, and now with our blackened chicken-inspired sausage there is something new to use in preparing delicious, flavorful meals.”
Zatarain’s Andouille, Cajun and Blackened Seasoned Chicken Smoked Sausages are seasoned with spices including paprika, black and red pepper, oregano and thyme. They are a complement for New Orleans dishes like jambalaya, red beans and rice and gumbo, as well as pairing with other rice mixes.
The new sausage is 100 percent ABF chicken, containing no antibiotics, artificial colors or flavors, no by-products, no MSG and is gluten free.
