Kfc Original Recipe Burrito

KFC certainly know about chicken, and they also know about putting chicken in things. Buckets, buns, wraps, they put chicken in just about anything. Well, now they've gone and put chicken in not just a wrap, but a big wrap, and they've put some rice and beans in with it too. You know what that makes? That's right, it's a KFC burrito. If there were ever two concurrent words that made me hungry, it's those ones right there.

I do love me a burrito, from the fast and slightly dirty ones available from Taco Bell, to the more upmarket Chipotle and Wrap It Up, but those places sure don't offer some of the Colonel's finest finger lickin' chicken. Putting chicken in a burrito is a good idea, though I wasn't overly sold on having mini fillets in one. But that's what you get, two mini fillets, surrounded by spicy rice and beans, and finished off with some lettuce and salsa. It's pretty big, especially compared to the paltry size of the regular chicken wraps, but then it has to be with all the stuff packed in there. Sure, it's not Chipotle size, but it makes for a good meal.

The chicken is as good as ever, the crispy skin adds a nice crunch to the whole affair, which is nice in comparison to the softness of the tortilla. The rice is good and filling, although I wouldn't exactly call it spicy. It does a good job of padding out the burrito though, and while it's certainly not the best quality, it's nice to see something a little different in a KFC meal. Ditto for the beans, they provide a nice bit of texture throughout when the rice gets a little too much. The strangest thing, though, was probably the sauce. I don't know if it's the way the salsa is, or whether the branch I visited couldn't quite tell their sauces apart, but mine tastes a whole lot like BBQ sauce. But hey, it wasn't too shabby, and and it certainly provided good coverage for all the ingredients.

This KFC burrito is certainly not the best burrito I've ever had, but it's a great addition to the menu that offers a more filling option for you wrap fiends out there. I'll definitely be trying out the Zinger and Pulled Chicken varieties when I next visit.The KFC Twister Wraps have been off the menu since 2014, and now the Yum Brands company is putting a new spin on them with a test of three new wraps

KFC announced Monday that the Louisville, Ky.-based chicken chain is bringing back wraps in a new form, thanks to clamoring fan requests. The former KFC Chicken Twister was on menus until 2014 and is currently only available in some international markets. The new KFC chicken wraps — which come in three varieties, classic, mac and cheese, and spicy slaw — will be tested out at select locations in Atlanta-area stores starting Oct. 3.

Much like its sister brand, Taco Bell, KFC is using nostalgia hype for now-defunct menu items to ramp up customer engagement. Unlike the Mexican Pizza, however, which returned with its classic recipe, the new KFC wraps are a different product from the Chicken Twister that disappeared from menus nearly a decade ago. According to KFC, there have been 42, 000 social media mentions over the past two years of the Chicken Twister and the company wanted to lean into its customers’ love of the item.

The new wraps are $3 each and can be purchased in a two-wrap combo. Here's how KFC describes each new menu item:

“With our new wraps, our fans in Atlanta are bound to experience a burst of finger lickin’ good flavor with every bite, whether it be from the crunch of our extra crispy tenders, the bold heat from our spicy sauce or the richness of our cheesy mac & cheese, ” Chef Chris Scott, head chef, KFC U.S. said in a statement. “We’re excited to hear the feedback on these new flavor combinations from our Atlanta customers!”

KFC has released a list of participating locations in the Atlanta area that are participating in the menu test of the new wraps. If all goes well, they could hit menus nationally.The KFC Twister is made with fried chicken strips, creamy pepper mayonnaise, lettuce and tomato. It used to be a popular item at Kentucky Fried Chicken but it has disappeared from the menu. Don’t worry, you can make your own wrap with this copycat recipe that’s easy to make at home in under 30 minutes.

Since the KFC Twister was discontinued in the United States several years ago, I thought it would be great to make a copycat version. This recipe uses pre-fried chicken strips to make it fast and easy to get dinner on the table. Cook the strips from frozen or grab some at the grocery store deli.

The pepper mayonnaise is really what makes this wrap so delicious. It’s so creamy and the fresh black pepper really adds a nice kick of flavor.

Lettuce, Tomato – Use your favorite shredded lettuce. I used green leaf lettuce for these pictures but romaine or iceburg would work well.

Warming the tortillas helps make them easier to fold and wrap without breaking or tearing. They need to be just slightly warmed to become pliable.

To warm, either microwave them for 10 seconds or place them in a large skillet over medium heat on the stove for about 2 minutes.

Heat oil in a large pot or deep skillet. Mix together flour, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne and baking powder and place in a zip-loc bag. Place chicken strips in the bag and shake to coat them.

Chicken Burrito Recipe

Combine milk and beaten egg into a bowl. Dip each flour coated chicken strip into milk mixture and then coat again in flour mixture. Place chicken in the hot oil and cook until golden, about 10 minutes. Only cook a few at a time. Make sure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches at least 165 degrees F.

If you have leftover pepper mayo, it can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
