McDonald's Hong Kong recently teamed up with celebrity chef Gabriel Choy to produce a new menu item called the Pulled Chicken Burger. The dish draws inspiration from a popular South Asian cooking style to put a delicious new spin on the traditional chicken burger.
The new Pulled Chicken Burger from McDonald's Hong Kong consists of pulled chicken that has been tossed in a flavorful tandoori sauce. The chicken is then topped with cheese, coleslaw, mayo and a crispy onion ring. The whole dish is then served on a bakery-style bun. In addition to the new burger, customers can also order a series of limited-run dishes such as BBQ McWings, Thick-Cut Fries and Sparkling Green Apple Tea.
The new dish demonstrates how fast food restaurants can elevate their fare, by teaming up with local chefs.
