If you’re a fan of fried chicken, this new crispy and juicy chicken thigh from McDonalds is pretty easy to get excited about. The chicken thigh meat makes it nice and juicy, and the spiced coating adds plenty of flavor without needing a dipping sauce to make it interesting. I particularly liked the onion and garlic seasoning, which gives it a savory kick beyond your standard fried chicken. It's also a good option when you want something a little more substantial than a few nuggets. Between the crunchy coating and tender meat, I think it's a good item to try out!

The main drawback is that chicken thigh isn't for everyone. While I enjoy how juicy it can be, it's a lot richer and sometimes a little fattier than breast meat, which might put off people who prefer a leaner piece of chicken. Also, at the price, I feel like there are probably better options for a savory snack at a convenience store that might give you a bit more bang for your buck, so keep that in mind. Overall though, a nice option for anyone who prefers chicken thigh over chicken breast.
