KFC recently announced the return of its popular Chicken & Waffles menu item, according to a press release. This dish gives a KFC finger-licking twist to the classic meal and is available in three different options.
The fried chicken behemoth is hoping the menu update will also be a way to the hearts of mom’s across the country.
“We believe Chicken & Waffles is an American icon,” KFC gushed in the release. “Flavorful, juicy and freshly fried secret recipe chicken, paired with sweet, golden waffles and gooey syrup—it’s bold, it’s delicious, and it’s back on our menu just in time for Mother’s Day!”
Customers can choose between the Tenders and Waffle Box, which includes three tenders, or the Two-Piece Fried Chicken and Waffle Box. Both are priced at $7. There’s also the $25 Chicken and Waffles Fan Favorites Box. Each option comes with a liège-style waffle and Mrs. Butterworth’s syrup.
