McDonald’s McCrispy Strips function white-meat hen breast strips with a crispy-fried breading and “a daring, new black pepper taste.”
A 3-piece order was $6.39 or somewhat over $2 per tender (which is across the going charge at chains like Wingstop and Popeyes).
My native McDonald’s had an fascinating scenario the place the McCrispy Strips weren’t but obtainable to order by an ordering kiosk or the cellular app, however could possibly be ordered on the counter and drive-thru.
The McCrispy Strips have been lengthy and skinny with a lightweight however crunchy shell. They have been well-seasoned (though not notably peppery) and good sufficient to eat on their very own. The hen inside was decently tender and moist, though one piece was reasonably stringy. I do not know if it was previous, minimize fallacious on the manufacturing facility (with the grain), or each, but it surely was a ache to chew into (the opposite two strips have been high quality, although).
The Creamy Chili Dip is described as a “savory, candy, and tangy sauce.” It had a vibrant orange colour and was creamy, candy, and considerably tangy. There was a really delicate warmth to it (like black pepper stage warmth). It went properly with the seasonings of the McCrispy Strips. I additionally tried it with Rooster McNuggets, they usually did not actually mesh. Given the dearth of warmth, I do not know why they referred to as it “chili dip.”
Total, McDonald’s McCrispy Strips turned out fairly properly. I notably preferred the seasoned taste and skinny, crunchy crust (which ought to maintain up properly in a Snack Wrap).
