The savory treat has been making waves in the UK, and if you’re a big fan of the McChicken, then it’s going to be right up your street.
In March, McDonald’s CEOChris Kempczinskiteased the release of this burger in a taste test video, comparing it to the OG Big Mac.
In his video, Kempczinski noted that this new burger had a “crunch that you just don’t get with the regular Big Mac.”

That’s right, it’s the Chicken Big Mac. Popular food bloggerSnackolatorannounced this US release on their Instagram on Monday, August 26, and fans were going wild over the new burger release.
The burger is exactly the same as the classic Big Mac, except instead of hamburgers, customers can chow down on two chicken fillets (similar to that in a McChicken), slathered in cheese, pickles, lettuce, and of course, Big Mac sauce.
