Frozen Chicken Kiev's:
Are they reconstituted, or Whole (real) chicken breast?

Do you have a specific brand you’re questioning?

It varies. You need to look at the packaging. Most are reconstituted.

Almost always formed from minced chicken. M&S do a version from whole breast, I think, and possibly Waitrose.

Most are formed from minced chicken, some are actual chicken breasts, these are usually the luxury brands and cost more. Reading the product information carefully will tell you what to know.

The % chicken on the cheap ones is low, read the packets well

Mostly reconstituted. Costco do a whole breast Kiev in the frozen section. It’s very good. Much more expensive than the minced stuff of course.

The Costco ones used to be better k think.
