'Church’s Chicken' recently announced the launch of its new Honey-Butter Biscuit Tenders. While there are many fast food chains that offer fried chicken, this new dish put a sweet twist on the classic Southern dish.

The new Honey-Butter Biscuit Tenders combine the chain's famous fried chicken with the taste of its sweet scratch-made biscuits. The dish itself consists of all-white-meat chicken that has been dipped in the chain's famous Honey-Butter Biscuit batter. The tenders are then fried until they are crispy and golden brown. For an extra sweet twist, the tenders are served with a tasty [Honey-Butter dipping sauce](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chicken-dippers) on the side.

Unfortunately the new dish is a [limited-edition menu item](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/churchs-texas-chicken), meaning customers will only have until May 22nd to sample the sweet fried chicken strips.
