McDonald's UK brings back limited-edition Chicken Big Mac

McDonald's Chicken Big Mac

McDonald's U.K. launched the Chicken Big Mac in early February, but the fast-food chain was forced to pull out the item due to overwhelming demand. The restaurant said its new chicken sandwich option was already sold in just 10 days after the initial release.

The sandwich was offered for a limited time, and with the huge demand, the end date of its availability was not even reached and cut so short. Now, it has been almost three weeks since McDonald's U.K. stopped selling the Chicken Big Mac, and this week, it was announced that it is finally returning to the menu.

As per Wales Online, McDonald's U.K. is bringing back the Chicken Big Mac, and it will be in the stores across the country starting March 2. But just like its initial release, it will only be in the restaurants for a limited time.

Customers who are craving this sandwich must head to the nearest McDonald's in the U.K. as soon as possible before it is removed from the menu again. While the date of availability this time is more than two weeks, the demand could once again force the fast-food to stop selling it early.

"We have been delighted by our customers' reaction to the limited-edition Chicken Big Mac," the burger joint's spokesperson said regarding the return of Chicken Big Mac. "Thank you to everyone who has made this the U.K. and Ireland's most popular launch ever. The demand has been incredible and we are pleased to share its back but for a limited time only."

In any case, the Chicken Big Mac at McDonald's U.K. is similar to the regular Big Mac but the beef patties are replaced with chicken patties. It is composed of two crispy chicken breast patties in the restaurant's signature coating, slices of cheese, pickles, lettuce, and special Big Mac sauce. The ingredients are layered in the three-tier toasted sesame seed bun.

Meanwhile, U.K.'s Express reported that the Chicken Big Mac will be sold at £4.09 a la carte and £5.59 if ordered as part of a meal with french fries and a drink. The limited-edition sandwich will be at McDonald's U.K. restaurant outlets from March 2 until March 15 or until supplies last.
