Jidori® Boneless Whole Chicken Leg (with Feet Attached)

$15.00

"Claude the Claw" – A Culinary Statement Piece

Inspired by the bold creation from Birdbox, the fast-casual offshoot of Michelin-starred Birdsong in San Francisco, this specialty cut features a boneless Jidori® whole leg — thigh, drumstick, and claw intact — for a presentation that’s as primal as it is elegant.

Designed for chefs and adventurous home cooks alike, it delivers rich flavor and unforgettable character to bao, plated entrées, or sandwiches. This is dark meat in its most expressive form.

Note: "Claude the Claw" is a name originally associated with a sandwich created by Birdbox in San Francisco. Jidori® is not affiliated with Birdbox or Birdsong; this product is our chef-driven interpretation using our proprietary cut. Photo credit: Robert Sietsema/Eater NY.

  • Deep Frying: Marinate, dredge, and fry at 350°F for 10–12 minutes until golden

Let rest 5 minutes before slicing or serving. Always cook to an internal temperature of 165°F.
