Taco Bell Launches Crispy Chicken Nuggets Nationwide

The fast-food chain introduces tortilla chip-breaded nuggets with bold dipping sauces for a limited time starting December 19.

Taco Bell's new Crispy Chicken Nuggets feature all-white meat chicken marinated in jalapeño buttermilk and coated in a blend of breadcrumbs and tortilla chips.
Three dipping sauces accompany the nuggets: Hidden Valley Fire Ranch, Jalapeño Honey Mustard, and Taco Bell's new tangy Bell Sauce.
The nuggets will be available in 5-piece and 10-piece options, priced at $3.99 and $6.99 a la carte, with combo meals starting at $5.99.
Taco Bell tested the nuggets in Minneapolis and Houston prior to the nationwide rollout, emphasizing a unique twist on a classic fast-food staple.
The limited-time menu addition reflects Taco Bell's strategy to appeal to younger consumers and expand its chicken offerings as demand for poultry grows.
