Deli meat provider Dietz & Watson is introducing two new chicken breast flavors: Heritage Roast Chicken Breast and Cantina Chicken Breast, unveiled at the International Dairy Deli Bakery Association (IDDBA) Show. The company said its new offerings bring both nostalgic comfort and fresh, contemporary taste to the service deli counter.

“At Dietz & Watson, we’re always looking for ways to add exciting flavor to our portfolio while staying true to our roots,” said Lauren Eni Canseco, chief marketing officer at Dietz & Watson. “Heritage Roast speaks to the timeless comfort families love, while Cantina Chicken introduces a fresh, vibrant flavor inspired by global cuisine. Both reflect our commitment to quality ingredients, thoughtful innovation, and listening closely to what shoppers are craving.”

“As a family-owned company, we’ve always believed the deli counter should offer both trusted classics and exciting new flavors,” said Louis Eni, president and CEO of Dietz & Watson. “With Heritage Roast and Cantina Chicken, we’re delivering on both. One brings the comforting taste of a traditional roast chicken, while the other introduces a bold, globally inspired flavor. It’s a reflection of how we continue evolving our portfolio while staying rooted in the quality and craftsmanship our family has stood behind for generations.”

The new flavors are designed to deliver versatility across multiple meal occasions:

• Heritage Roast Chicken Breast delivers a hearty profile reminiscent of a classic homemade chicken soup. Savory roasted chicken is layered with subtle herbaceous notes, as well as sweet vegetables and fresh herbs.

• Cantina Chicken Breast is inspired by global flavors. Sweet-savory vegetables lead the first bite, complemented by herbaceous cilantro and coriander. A touch of acidity keeps the finish crisp, while light smoky undertones add depth.

Both new chicken breast varieties are gluten free and made without artificial preservatives, flavors or colors. Like all Dietz & Watson deli meats, they contain no fillers, extenders or MSG.

To support retail partners and inspire shoppers, complementary recipes featuring Heritage Roast and Cantina Chicken will be available on the Dietz & Watson website and integrated into point-of-sale materials and in-store demo programs.
