White Castle recently introduced a tantalizing new side dish called Pretzel Chicken Rings, which are designed for easy sharing. In recent years, fast food brands have been experimenting with new and innovative ways to serve chicken tenders. The latest chicken dish from White Castle not only boasts a unique shape, but also an unexpectedly salty coating.
The new Pretzel Chicken Rings from White Castle are similar to the chain's existing Chicken Rings in that they consist of all-white meat chicken that has been molded into circular ring shaped pieces. However, the new version of the dish is also made with a crushed pretzel coating that gives the chicken strips a salty taste and an extra-crunchy texture. In order to make the dish easy to share, the Pretzel Chicken Rings are sold in packages of 20.
