Due to overwhelming popularity, KFC has begun offering hot chicken sandwiches made with its Nashville Hot Chicken. Originally introduced back in January, KFC's Nashville Hot Chicken is a fried chicken dish glazed with hot sauce and topped with pickles. Now the chain is bringing back the southern delicacy in the form of a sandwich.
In response to consumer demand, KFC customers can now order their Chicken Little sandwiches topped with Nashville Hot Chicken. The new option features tenders of extra crispy fried chicken covered in the chain's spicy and smoky Nashville hot sauce and served on a mini bun. The new hot chicken sandwiches are designed to cater to the growing demand for spicy foods and greater variety when it comes to snack-sized dishes.
