Having friends for dinner is one of my favourite things to do but with two busy 4 year olds sometimes that is easier said than done. While my boys are happy with grilled cheese for dinner I’m not sure my guests would be! This week we grabbed a KFC Bucket and mix and matched it with the NEW KFC Sweet Chili Crunch for a really great combo full of variety, Original and Sweet Chili Crunch + Popcorn Chicken, Fries and Gravy. You can Mix and Match the Sweet Chili Crunch with Original Recipe chicken in any combination. Want a variety bucket? They start at just $19.99!
Once we all sat down to dinner it was obvious that the new KFC flavour was a hit. Here’s what we loved about the chicken:
- Sauce is not overly spicy but it leaves a really nice aftertaste of sweet chili
- Chicken was really moist and full of flavour
- Skin was perfectly crunchy and delicious!
KFC makes the chicken on site where they marinate the chicken for 12 hours, then double bread and fry it. The final stage is drizzling it with Sweet Chili sauce and serving it fresh to order.
When I was a kid I loved getting KFC and going to our local zoo for a picnic. A bucket, a picnic blanket and family time = so many wonderful memories. Now, the same great taste can be brought home for my family. Delicious food, no prep, no dishes and no worry. What was the verdict on our family’s preference – Original of Sweet Chili Crunch?
Adults = KFC Sweet Chili Crunch
Kids = KFC Original Recipe
KFC’s Sweet Chili Crunch is only available for a limited time – make sure you get to your local KFC before November 23, 2014 to try out the crunchy chicken with a bit of heat.

This was so funny to read as one of students was just talking about his love of KFC. I had responded by saying, I remember as a kid, my mom picking up a bucket of KFC for a picnic at our local zoo (Peterborough) :-)
Yum I love adding sweet chili to my chicken. I haven’t had KFC in a long time.

Hmm looks like something my husband and I should try!
I can’t remember the last time I had KFC. One thing I do remember about them is that when I was a kid my mom and I would get KFC to go and go to watch the concert in the park while we ate dinner.

I haven’t had KFC in forever but I love it. Its just not good for my waist line so I have to just enjoy watching other people eat it.

Awww, this looks great. I can’t eat KFC though because MSG gives me migraines. :(
