American fast-food restaurant chain Wendy's has expanded its menu with the introduction of Wendy's Saucy Nuggs, a new chicken nugget offering.

From 10 June 2024, the new addition will be available in all Wendy's US restaurants, served in-person and at drive-throughs.

For customers wanting early access, Saucy Nuggs will be an exclusive, digital-only menu item from June 3 to June 9 at participating locations.

Wendy's is offering free in-app delivery for that week, although this offer is not valid on third-party delivery platforms.

Saucy Nuggs are tossed in sauce to create seven distinct flavours, and served with a choice of Blue Cheese or Ranch dipping sauce.

Available in four, six, ten or 20-piece servings, these seven flavour combinations are Spicy Honey BBQ, Spicy Buffalo, Spicy Garlic Parm, Honey BBQ, Buffalo, Garlic Parm and the intensely spicy Ghost Pepper.

Buffalo sauce features buttery undertones with a hint of vinegar, while Honey BBQ sauce combines a smoky flavour with honey.

The classic Garlic Parm flavour delivers a savoury balance of garlic and parmesan.

Spicy Ghost Pepper has an “intensely spicy” flavour.

Spicy Honey BBQ and Spicy Buffalo sauces offer a blend of sweet and spicy and a vinegar tang respectively, and Spicy Garlic Parm sauce is a take on a classic, packed with four types of roasted garlic.

Wendy's Company Culinary Innovation global vice-president John Li said: “We crafted four unique sauces to complement the Wendy's nugget experience and to provide fans with a variety of chicken options that meet their lifestyles and palettes.”

"Wendy’s adds new chicken nugget to menu in US " was originally created and published by Verdict Food Service, a GlobalData owned brand.
