Peak Refuel Chicken Coconut Curry Freeze-Dried Meal

The Peak Refuel Chicken Coconut Curry is a freeze-dried backcountry meal built around white chicken breast, enriched instant white rice, and a coconut curry sauce made with coconut milk, red curry paste, carrots, onion, spinach, and cilantro. Each single pouch delivers 44g of protein and 850 calories, rehydrates in 10 minutes with 10.5 oz of boiling water, and weighs 5.36 oz net (two servings per pouch). The sealed pouch carries a 10-year shelf life.

Real Protein, No Fillers

The 44g of protein per pouch comes from whole chicken white meat, with no textured vegetable protein and no artificial fillers. For a multi-day trip where calorie and protein targets matter, that distinction is practical: you know exactly what you're eating and can plan around a reliable number rather than a padded label claim.

Minimal Water, Full Meal

Rehydrating a complete rice-and-protein meal requires only 1⅓ cups of water, keeping the demand on your water supply low when sources are scarce or filtration time is a factor. The 10-minute stand time means the meal is ready before a long day fully catches up with you.

Shelf Life That Matches Long-Term Planning

The sealed pouch carries a 10-year shelf life, so buying in quantity for a season of trips or stocking an emergency kit does not require rotating stock constantly. Made and packaged in the USA.

Specifications

Who This Is For and Isn't

This meal suits backpackers, overlanders, and car campers who want a high-protein, hot meal with minimal prep and a long storage window. The 850-calorie, 44g-protein pouch works as a full dinner for one or a shared meal for two lighter appetites after a demanding day out.

This pouch is not suitable for anyone with tree nut (coconut) or soy allergies. It requires boiling water to rehydrate and is not a cold-soak option. The single-pouch format is not a multi-day meal kit.

Common Questions

How much water does this meal need, and does it have to be boiling?

The Peak Refuel Chicken Coconut Curry requires exactly 10.5 oz (1⅓ cups) of boiling water. Cold or warm water will not fully rehydrate the freeze-dried ingredients in the stated 10-minute stand time; boiling water is specified in the preparation instructions.

Is the oxygen absorber inside the pouch edible or reusable?

The Chicken Coconut Curry pouch contains an oxygen absorber that must be removed before adding water, as the first step of the preparation instructions. It is not edible and should be discarded before rehydrating the meal.

Does the pouch serve one person or two?

Each Peak Refuel Chicken Coconut Curry pouch contains two servings, with a serving size of half the pouch. One person eating the full pouch receives 850 calories and 44g of protein; two people splitting it receive half those amounts each.

What allergens does this meal contain?

The Peak Refuel Chicken Coconut Curry contains tree nut (coconut) and soy. The coconut milk and red curry paste in the sauce are the sources of the tree nut allergen; soy is present in the curry paste. Anyone with sensitivities to either should not consume this product.

How long does the sealed pouch stay good?

Peak Refuel certifies a 10-year shelf life on sealed Chicken Coconut Curry pouches, making the product practical for long-term emergency food storage or buying in bulk ahead of a season of trips without concern about near-term expiration.
