LATIN, MATRIPEDICABUS, DO YOU SPEAK IT
Popeyes Debuts New Cookie-Coated Chicken Tenders

The latest menu item from Popeyes, new Sweet & Crunchy Tenders, feature a coat of shortbread cookies for its namesake sweet and crunch.

You can get three of the new, limited-time chicken breast tenders, a side, a biscuit, and Smokin' Pepper Jam sauce (or other sauce of your choice) for $5 at participating locations.

Popeyes tends to roll out a new limited menu item roughly every month and they only stick around for about a month. The Sweet & Crunchy Tenders will be around through June 25, 2017.

Popeye's board meeting.

Waffle Batter Chicken.

"we need to go deeper"

Now I want them to add some peanut flavor to the shortbread. Like the TJ cookie butter coating.
The waffle chicken was too sweet for me to want it as a meal, but I would grab one off someones plate.
 
Don't sleep on Popeye's. I scoffed at the Waffle Tenders until I tasted them. Far better than I expected. Homemade no but better than many other chicken establishments out there. This is interesting to use shortbread cookies in the batter. I've used cornflakes, ritz, cheese its, and pepperidge farm goldfish to bread/batter chicken. I love fried chicken! It and my homemade mac and cheese with goldfish/breadcrumbs/italian seasonings crust are my best dishes for cookouts!
 
It's like they want their customers to die.

no, its that they understand that we all die. and before we all die, we will eat chicken breast that has been dipped in crushed up cookie crumbs and fried in oil. We are as gods, and today we shall eat like one.
 
Battering chicken in sugary snacks is one of the reasons why your country is sure to hit that 50% obesity rate in adults ahead of schedule.


Sounds tasty though.
 
Had this yesterday with the pepper jelly sauce. Not as heavy as the waffle tenders but tastes very similar. Delicious.
 
Shortbread is my favourite thing in the world, I ate a full giant tub of it over Christmas, it was like a million calories but so good.
 
"Participating locations." Does that refer to the menu item, or the price? Because I went to Popeye's the other day and they wanted $8.30 just for 3 strips, small fries and a biscuit. I told them no thanks.
 
I've been struggling with what to eat tonight and now I know, good looking out OP!

My local Popeyes has two apple pies for $1, not sure if all locations have this, and they are probably the best hot fast food desert I've eaten.
 
Yo I gotta say, not sure if it affects all Popeyes locations but the one near my area said that their supplier for their honey just straight up stopped giving it for them. Now I never finish their biscuits (too lazy to buy my own honey) lol.

yeah, buying a bear of honey is pretty taxing.
 
Why does Popeyes always release these things when I'm dieting? I guess I'll wait till after my trip and just try them once before I start cutting again for the wedding.

I think it's more for the item. Since it's franchised some places have different menus and specials. I'm sure price is the same but more based on location.
 
I'll give it a shot at some point.

I finally tried their waffle ones a while back. While fairly good, there was some weird slight aftertaste that didn't taste right. So I'm not expecting too much.
 
Well. They're not sweet. So that's confusing.

They are crunchy, and there is a hint of cookie after taste. They are a lot like the Waffle ones.

weird.
the pepper jam sauce is nice.

any one else have impressions?
 
Reminds me of chicken breasts made into tenders using broken up Captain Crunch. That shit is delicious. Indont care for Popeye tenders though. They're pretty skimpy on the meat.

I havent tried them yet.
 
Honestly i can't imagine it tasting that much different from regular bbq chicken since that sauce has so much sugar in it anyway. The texture might be different though. I'll give it a try if I get a chance.
 
The waffle tenders were gross. Don't have high hopes for this.

Will stick with my spicy tenders!
