Licious has launched Sizzl Chicken Jhol Momo, which the company bills as India’s first packaged chicken jhol momos in a frozen format, priced at Rs 239 for a pack of six pieces plus a 90g jhol sachet. The chicken jhol momos are sold on the Licious app in eight cities, according to a trade report dated October 8, 2026.

Licious is a direct-to-consumer (D2C) meat and seafood brand. The new product pairs its best-selling Loaded Chicken Momos with a tangy, nutty and spicy jhol, a broth that is traditionally served with momos. The app lists the product in Bengaluru, Mumbai, Pune, the National Capital Region, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata and Chandigarh.

What Is Inside the Licious Sizzl Chicken Jhol Momo Pack?

Each Rs 239 pack holds six frozen chicken momos and one 90g sachet of jhol. Licious says buyers can steam the momos for 4 to 6 minutes, or pan-cook them with a little oil for about 6 minutes. The jhol sachet is heated with one to two tablespoons of water for about 2 minutes. The company has not published nutrition details or shelf-life figures in the material reviewed.

Why Does Licious Say Momos Matter to Its Business?

Tavleen Bhatia, Business Head for Value Added Products at Licious, said the company’s momo portfolio launched nine months before this release. She said Licious’s chicken momo now holds around 20% of the online packaged meat momo market. That share is a company claim, and the source does not cite an independent market study to back it.

What Does the Launch Mean for Frozen and Ready-to-Cook Food?

The product adds a ready-to-cook accessory, the broth, to a frozen snack that consumers usually buy as a standalone item. By shipping the jhol in its own sachet, Licious makes a street-food style dish possible at home in under ten minutes of cooking time. The launch also shows a D2C meat brand extending from raw meat into value-added products, a category the company’s own executive describes as a growth area.

Market Reaction and Industry Response

No analyst note, competitor statement or trade-body comment on the launch was found in the source material. The report carries no stock-market reaction. Readers should treat the “first of its kind” description as the company’s own positioning.

What Happens Next?

The source does not announce further cities, retail-store distribution or additional flavours. The next signals to watch are whether Licious widens the product beyond its app and whether rivals in frozen snacks respond with their own broth-paired momo packs.
