Zaxbys is bringing the heat (and the sweet) with the debut of its new [General Tso's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mad-genius-snack-lab) Boneless Wings Meal.

For just a limited time, Zaxby's is serving up boneless wings tossed in a flavorful General Tso's sauce. The new sauce has a [sweet heat flavor profile](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-honey-trio) and was actually created by combining a few of Zaxby's current wing sauces, including Nuclear, BBQ, and Teriyaki. The result is a rich wing sauce with notes of ginger, soy, sesame, hot peppers, garlic, and onions. To round things out, the General Tso's Boneless Wings Meal also includes a side of ranch dipping sauce, crinkle fries, Texas toast, and a 22 oz. beverage.

The new General Tso's Boneless Wings Meal will be available now through February 28, 2021.
