Christmas is truly our favourite time of year. It is also when you gather family and friends for a good, hearty meal. It is, after all, the season to be jolly.
If turkey is not the centrepiece you want for your Christmas dinner, it must be fried chicken. Yes, we know; you love KFC as much as we do. You know we would jump at every opportunity to eat KFC for it is our utmost guilty pleasure, and we are definitely ready to welcome the Red Hot Chicken again for Christmas this year.
Besides the Red Hot Chicken, KFC Singapore is also launching its new baked cheese tarts on 16 November!
Don’t tell us fried chicken is not Christmas food. You would agree after you’ve tried the KFC Red Hot Chicken, and Here Is Why You Should Be Digging Into The KFC Red Hot Chicken This Yuletide Season.
KFC RED HOT CHICKEN
Let’s swap the turkey for KFC’s Red Hot Chicken. As if the regular crispy and piping hot chicken from KFC isn’t enough; the chickens now get a douse of spiciness and we are all sold.
The Red Hot Chicken is back, and if you remembered it from last year, yes—it is very spicy. Fresh, juicy and succulent chicken pieces are first soaked in KFC’s signature Hot & Spicy marinade, then coated in paprika batter before being put to fry to obtain that familiar crispy, tender perfection that we all love.
If that is not spicy enough for you (you tough nut!), then turn up the heat with the accompanying Flaming Hot Sauce that is guaranteed to make you sweat. No joke; it was so spicy that we couldn’t be more thankful for the icy cold cup of Sjora (that came with the meal).
Honestly, Christmas and KFC fried chicken are the two best things and it is the best combination!
POTATO WINDERS
To accompany the spicy Red Hot Chicken, KFC has now added the new Potato Winders to the mix—tasty potato swirls that are a creative rendition of the usual stick fries. The skin adds a textural variety, and the crunchy snack is more addictive than we thought!
You can choose to have them on its own, but we like dipping ours into the Flaming Hot sauce. Fair warning: they weren’t kidding when the named the sauce ‘flaming hot sauce’.
CHEESE TARTS
But surely no Christmas feast is complete without some desserts to satisfy the sweet tooth in us all. Cheese tarts are all the rage now, yes? Well, let’s say hello to KFC’s all-new Cheese Tart—made with decadent European premium cream cheese. It got everyone on the table swooning.
You will be surprised by how creamy the new cheese tarts are. They simply crumble in the mouth, leaving you with a mix of sweet and salty, warm cheese. The cheese tarts are baked fresh daily, so you know that what you are getting is fresh, and not laden with preservatives.
But besides the taste of it, we are also really bought over by how affordable these cheese tarts are. They are available at just S$1.90 each!
The best things in life should be shared, and that is what Christmas is all about. So, with the Buy 5 Get 1 Free promotion, everyone will get their cheese tarts!
RED HOT BOX
This is the set to go for if you cannot decide on just one item. With the KFC Red Hot Box, you get a full meal that comes with two pieces of Red Hot Chicken, a tub of the Flaming Hot Sauce, Potato Winders, a whipped potato, two pieces of nuggets, and a refreshing SJORA® Mango Peach. It is available at S$9.50.
The next thing to do is to top-up for a cheese tart to complete your meal.
There is also a Red Hot Christmas Family Feast that is perfect for groups of four and above, and there is a delivery option for this as well.
The Red Hot Chicken and Cheese Tarts will officially launch islandwide on 16 November 2016, and be made available until 02 January 2017.
