The [Dairy Queen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/original-chicken-strip-sandwich) Parmesan Garlic Chicken Strips are a new addition to the brand's menu that are sure to satisfy consumer preferences for savory snacks this springtime. The menu item starts off with 100% white meat chicken breast strips that have been cooked to crispy perfection before being covered in a [creamy Parmesan Garlic sauce](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chickfila-parmesan-caesar). The chicken strips are available in four-piece and six-piece orders.

The Dairy Queen Parmesan Garlic Chicken Strips are launching alongside the returning Honey BBQ Chicken Strips, which highlight sweet and smoky notes in every bite. The brand is also offering both chicken strip flavors as part of the Sauced & Tossed Chicken Strip Basket, which comes with your choice of flavor alongside fries, [dipping sauce](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/signature-dipping-sauce) and Texas toast.
