KANSAS CITY — The foodservice industry has seen a surge in chicken innovations as of late.

Jollibee, a popular fried chicken maker, is introducing a new item to its menu – chicken tenders made with all-white meat chicken tenderloins and hand breaded with a light coating. Along with the tenders, Jollibee is also launching its signature tender sauce.

“We crafted our new Jollibee chicken tenders with chicken tender lovers in mind, focusing on quality and superior flavor in each bite. We’re confident this new recipe will become an instant favorite,” said Luis Velasco, senior vice president and marketing head at Jollibee Foods Corp., North America.

KFC, a subsidiary of Yum! Brands, has teamed up with Mike’s Hot Honey to introduce two limited time “swicy” offerings – a three-piece tender meal with a drizzle of Mike’s Hot Honey and a two-piece fried chicken meal with original or extra crispy fried chicken drizzled with the honey.

“Combining KFC’s flavorful fried chicken with the bold, sweet heat of Mike’s Hot Honey just makes sense,” said Catherine Tan-Gillespie, chief marketing officer and development officer, KFC US.

Atlanta-based Krispy Krunchy Chicken has added chicken nuggets to its menu. These nuggets feature whole-muscle white chicken breast marinated in a seasoning blend and coated with the company’s signature “krunchy” breading.

“We’re excited to introduce this product to consumers and provide our operators with a product that’s proven to drive in new customers and increase overall sales,” said Jim Norberg, CEO of Krispy Krunchy Chicken.
