Chester’s Chicken is upping its chicken sandwich game with the launch of the new Honey Stung Chicken Sandwich.
From now through September 5, 2022, Chester's Chicken will be serving its new Honey Stung Chicken Sandwich and Honey Stung Chicken Bites in all of the brand’s 1,200 locations nationwide. Both of the new items are made with Frank’s RedHot Stingin’ Honey Garlic Sauce, which is a spicy and garlicky blend that delivers a powerful sweet heat. The Honey Stung Fried Chicken Sandwich features a crispy, double-breaded chicken breast fillet tossed in RedHot Stingin’ Honey Garlic Sauce and some dill pickle chips on a soft brioche bun. On the other hand, the new Honey Stung Chicken Bites consist of bite-sized pieces of marinated, double-breaded white-meat chicken tossed in Frank’s RedHot Stingin’ Honey Garlic sauce.
