LOUISVILLE, Ky., March 23, 2023 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Let the nugget wars begin! Kentucky Fried Chicken® is introducing new, 100 percent white meat Kentucky Fried Chicken Nuggets – hand-breaded with KFC’s Original Recipe® – to menus nationwide starting March 27.
After a wildly successful test run in 2022 and years without a nugget made with the signature taste of KFC on menus, new Kentucky Fried Chicken Nuggets are making their way to KFC’s permanent menu at participating locations – and these chicken nuggets pack a powerful pop of flavor that can be enjoyed nationwide seven days a week.

Colonel Harland Sanders spent years perfecting his secret seasoning blend that creates the unmistakable, world-famous taste of KFC’s Original Recipe fried chicken. And starting March 27, it’s making its way to nuggets like you’ve never had before. With the new KFC Nuggets, KFC is inviting those who love chicken nuggets to fall in love with KFC’s famous Original Recipe.
