The Kentucky Fried Chicken Nuggets are being tested by the QSR brand as a menu item for consumers to enjoy in place of its traditional offerings. The KFC Nuggets are crafted with 100% white meat chicken and hand-breaded in the brand's Original Recipe blend of herbs and spices to give them a decidedly savory flavor. The nuggets come with your choice of sauce including KFC Sauce, Classic Ranch, Honey BBQ and Honey Mustard, and come in eight, 12 or 36-piece options.
The Kentucky Fried Chicken Nuggets are being test marketed by the brand at select locations in Charlotte, North Carolina starting on July 18, 2022. The brand is celebrating the new menu item by offering staff at Atrium Health maternity center locations exclusive access as a small token of gratitude as they bring new nuggets into the world.
