The [Burger King](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheddarich-chicken-nuggets) Jalapeno Cheddar Chicken Nuggets are a new take on the brand's signature nuggets menu item for patrons to pick up when seeking out a decidedly more complex meal option.

The nuggets are arriving at participating locations in Canada and are made with bite-sized pieces of seasoned white meat chicken. The nuggets are then covered in a home-style breading that's seasoned with notes of cheddar and jalapeño to give them a burst of flavor. The nuggets come with a [dipping sauce](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hidden-valley-ranch-fire-sauce) and are being offered in eight packs and 10 packs priced at $3.99 and $4.99, respectively.

The Burger King Jalapeno Cheddar Chicken Nuggets are a limited time offering and will only be around on a nationwide basis for a short while.
