Product Description

The core of the TenderCrisp sandwich is its chicken fillet, which is marinated and breaded with a proprietary blend of seasonings, then deep-fried. This preparation aims to ensure that the chicken is juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside, living up to its name. The sandwich is assembled on a bakery-style bun, which may vary regionally, and typically includes lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise as standard toppings. However, Burger King has occasionally introduced limited-time variants that include additional ingredients such as bacon, cheeses, and unique sauces.

Marketing campaigns for the TenderCrisp have frequently highlighted the quality and taste of the sandwich, positioning it as a superior choice within the fast-food industry's chicken sandwich category.
