Shake Shack Launches Korean-Style Fried Chicken Sandwich As Chicken Wars Continue



[ad_1]

The Chicken Sandwich Wars are heating up in the New Year in fast food chains.

Shake Shack introduced a new iteration of the fried chicken sandwich almost immediately after McDonald’s announced that three new crispy chicken sandwiches would be on its menu next month. Meanwhile, Popeyes, Chick-fil-A and KFC vie for the supremacy of tasty sandwiches as the chicken wars continue.

Shake Shack’s Korean Fried Chick’n Sandwich is made with a crispy chicken breast glazed with a spicy and sweet gochujang fermented chili paste. It is topped with a salad of white kimchi and toasted sesame seeds. Customers can also order a nugget version with six-piece Korean-style Gochujang Chick’n Bites made with the same fermented chili paste.

The burger chain will also serve Korean-style gochujang fries, its signature wavy cut fries served with a gochujang mayonnaise sauce and a vanilla black sugar shake made with vanilla ice cream, black sugar syrup and topped with whipped cream.

Chicken sandwiches have been all the rage for many fast food lovers since 2019, when Popeyes introduced a spicy chicken sandwich that quickly captured a cult following. Since then, rival restaurants like Chick-Fil-A, McDonald’s, Wendy’s and KFC have stepped up efforts to compete in the crowded space.
