Long John Silver’s is looking to lure in bargain hunters this January with the debut of its new $6 Chicken Planks Basket.
Perfect for chicken lovers looking for a more complete meal, the new Chicken Planks Basket has a little bit of everything. The star of the meal is Long John Silver’s signature Chicken Planks, which are hand-battered chicken tenders made with 100% white meat chicken raised and produced on U.S. farms. The batter used is the same as what the chain uses for its fish, so you get a perfectly crispy finish. Along with two hand-battered chicken tenders, each basket also includes two of Long John Silver’s iconic hushpuppies, and your choice of side.
