The [KFC](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saucy-sandwich) Saucy Chicken Sandwiches are being launched by the [QSR](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saucy-nuggets) brand as a new range of sandwiches perfect for avid fans of fried chicken looking for a decidedly saucy option to try out. The sandwich is crafted with a piece of the brand's signature Extra Crispy chicken breast filet paired with pickles, the Colonel's mayo and your choice of sauce. The sauces come in three options including [Honey BBQ](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honey-bbq-chicken-sandwiches), Honey Sriracha and Korean BBQ, which are each crafted to deliver an exceptional flavor experience.

The KFC Saucy Chicken Sandwiches are being launched as a digital exclusive that can only be ordered via the brand's app or website. The sandwiches are priced at $5.99 each, but are being introduced with a limited time deal where customers who place an order via the brand's app or website can enjoy 50% off.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Quick-service Restaurants:** QSRs can capitalize on the growing trend of digital-exclusive offerings to enhance customer convenience and streamline operations.
