McDonald's launches Chicken Big Mac with tempura-battered chicken nationwide

McDonald's has launched a new Chicken Big Mac, available nationwide starting October 10. This version replaces beef patties with tempura-battered chicken, while keeping the classic Big Mac toppings like pickles, lettuce, and sauce. The Chicken Big Mac features crispy chicken patties that maintain their texture despite the sauce and toppings. It contains 530 calories and is expected to be priced slightly lower than the traditional Big Mac. This new offering aims to compete in the growing chicken sandwich market. The Chicken Big Mac is promoted as a limited-time item, encouraging customers to try it soon.
