Beer and fried chicken are a natural pairing, which is why Buffalo Wild Wings has just debuted a new beer-battered chicken lineup. With three delicious options to choose from, you have plenty of new ways to enjoy the delicious taste of beer-battered chicken.
Buffalo Wild Wings' new beer-battered chicken lineup features three new dishes, each of which is made with Lagunitas IPA. The first is the Southern Chicken Sandwich, which pairs a beer-battered chicken breast with Swiss cheese, Napa slaw, bacon aioli, and pickles on a challah bun. Next up is the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich, which slathers a beer-battered chicken breast in Nashville hot sauce, and tops it with Fresno Chile peppers, Ranch dressing, Napa slaw, and pickles on a challah bun. For those who want to go bun-free, there are the Hand-breaded Chicken Tenders battered in the Lagunitas IPA and served with the dipping sauce of your choice.
