Popeyes debuts two new menu items. When can you try them?
Popeyes newest menu items were made for dipping.
Chicken dippers arrived at participating restaurants Monday, July 14, alongside a new signature sauce inspired by Popeyes’ New Orleans roots, according to the Miami-based chicken chain.
Customers can dunk the dippers — thin strips of white meat chicken battered in Popeyes’ signature spice blend — in a sauce that blends “the bold flavors of the Louisiana ‘holy trinity;’ bell pepper, celery, and onion,” Popeyes said in a news release.
Prices start at $4.99 but may vary by location, according to the restaurant’s website.
“We took our time developing it over the last five years, ensuring we landed on something undeniably Popeyes,” Chef Amy Alarcon, vice president of culinary innovation at Popeyes, said of the signature sauce.
This “is a monumental moment for our brand, and one we approached with care, knowing it had the potential to become an iconic part of our menu,” she said.
The chicken dippers are available for a limited time, but the signature sauce is here to stay, according to Popeyes. It’ll join classic dipping sauces including barbecue, blackened ranch and honey mustard.
The dippers’ debut comes at the heels of Popeyes latest menu innovation: chicken wraps. A first for the chicken chain, each “grab-and-go style” wrap features a full-sized chicken tender, lettuce, cheese, pickles and customers’ choice of sauce.
Popeyes beat rival McDonald’s to the punch, launching its wraps a day before the Golden Arches teased the highly anticipated return of its snack wrap.
“Infusing the flavors from our famous biscuit into our wraps was the perfect way to ensure our signature flavors shined through,” Alarcon said at the time.
