KFC is pulling out all the stops with its latest menu addition, the Original Recipe Chicken Tenders. After teasing fans with limited regional tests, the fried chicken giant is finally rolling out the highly anticipated tenders nationwide starting October 14th.
A Tender Makeover
While KFC has long offered chicken tenders, this new iteration is a game-changer. The chain has swapped out the traditional Extra Crispy breading for its legendary Original Recipe—the same 11 herbs and spices that make its classic fried chicken a fan favorite.
Instead of a simple breading and frying process, the new KFC Tenders undergo a double breading in the secret recipe and are pressure-fried for maximum crispiness and juiciness. It’s fried chicken perfection in tender form.
Comeback Sauce Steals The Show
Alongside the new tenders, KFC is introducing a zesty, peppery Comeback Sauce for dipping. The fried chicken aficionados at KFC HQ have created a sauce that’s sure to become a fast favorite.
“It’s like KFC’s version of Cane’s Sauce or Zaxby’s sauce, and it’s quite literally perfect,” raves one early taste-tester. “I wanted to dip everything on my plate in the sauce—and I did. The fries, chicken, and if I had a biscuit, I would have dipped that in there, too.”
A Long Time Coming
KFC has been steadily building anticipation for the Original Recipe Tenders over the past year. Limited tests in Ohio, Nashville, and West Palm Beach have only whetted fans’ appetites for a nationwide launch.
“All that hard work seems to have paid off because we just got news that they are coming nationwide starting Oct. 14,” the taste-tester notes. The new tenders are poised to become a fast favorite, with potential to shine in KFC’s chicken sandwiches and nuggets as well.
So mark your calendars, chicken tender enthusiasts. The wait is nearly over. The KFC Original Recipe Chicken Tenders and Comeback Sauce will hit menus across the country on October 14th, ready to take your fried chicken experience to new heights.
