Spicy Chicken McNuggets and Mighty Hot Sauce hitting U.S. menus this fall, along with new McFlurry flavor to help customers cool off
Spice is in the eye of the beholder…or in this case, the taste buds. One person’s taste-bud-singeing swelter is another’s “you call that spicy?” That’s why McDonald’s is excited to announce a pair of menu innovations arriving to U.S. restaurants this fall to please spice-seeking customers: Spicy Chicken McNuggets and Mighty Hot Sauce. Both will be available September 16 for a limited time at participating restaurants nationwide.
Breaded with a sizzling tempura coating made of both cayenne and chili peppers, these craveable, dippable and downright-delicious Spicy Chicken McNuggets are joining the classic McNugget line up, and pack plenty of spice and flavor into each bite.
For those who care to dial up the heat, they’ve crafted the new Mighty Hot Sauce, boasting a powerful blend of crushed red peppers and spicy chilis. The new dipping sauce is both their first new sauce innovation since 2017 and the hottest one available at McDonald’s. Trust us – you’re going to want to take a dip.
“This is the first time we’ve introduced a new flavor of our classic Chicken McNuggets in the U.S. since they came to menus in 1983,” said Vice President of Menu Innovation, Linda VanGosen. “As our customers have been asking for Spicy McNuggets for some time now, we couldn’t think of a better time to bring them to our menus. We can’t wait for McNuggets fans to get a taste of these new spicy options.”
Spicy heat, meet cool and sweet.
To give fans the sweet, cool relief they might need after experiencing the Spicy Chicken McNuggets heat, McDonald’s is introducing the new Chips Ahoy! McFlurry. This delicious treat features vanilla soft-serve, caramel topping and Chips Ahoy! cookie pieces blended throughout. The Chips Ahoy! McFlurry will be available in Snack and Regular sizes for a limited time at participating U.S. restaurants nationwide beginning September 16.
Of course, fans can also treat themselves to a delicious moment with a McFlurry year-round in McDonald’s two classic flavors: OREO and M&M’S.
McDonald’s is bringing them delicious twists on two beloved classics this September with the release of Spicy Chicken McNuggets with Mighty Hot Sauce and Chips Ahoy! McFlurry, all available through Drive Thru and McDelivery.
