Taco Bell once again has excited fans about a potential new menu item: crispy chicken strips.
The fast-food giant is testing a selection of new items, including the much-anticipated chicken strips, across the Flint, Michigan, area, leaving Taco Bell lovers hoping the items will soon hit menus nationwide.
Exciting New Crispy Chicken Strips
This test menu features the brand-new Crispy Chicken Strips, coated in Mexican spices and crispy tortilla chips for extra crunch. The strips are part of a series of chicken-based items, including the Crispy Chicken Taco and Crispy Chicken Burrito, available in both Spicy Ranchero and Avocado Ranch flavors.
The unique seasoning and tortilla coating adds a twist to traditional chicken strips, giving them that signature Taco Bell flair.
Fans Share Their Excitement
Food influencer Snackolator broke the news on social media, stirring up enthusiasm among Taco Bell’s devoted followers. In the comments, fans couldn’t contain their excitement, with comments like “I need Taco Bell now!” and “This would be the bomb!”
Others expressed hopes to see the items reach their cities, with one fan writing, “PLZ I NEED THIS IN ATX,” while others praised the items, saying, “Looks amazing!”
For some, the Crispy Chicken Burrito even brings back memories of McDonald’s beloved Snack Wrap, which fans have been clamoring to see return. One user joked, “So McDonald’s wouldn’t bring back the Snack Wrap, and Taco Bell thought, ‘I got it.'”
