Burger King’s Italian Royal Crispy Hen sandwich options a crispy-fried hen breast filet served with marinara sauce and melted mozzarella cheese on a toasted potato bun.
The sandwich goes for $6.09 close to me however I used a coupon and obtained it as a part of a combo with small fries and a drink for $7.
Out of the wrapper, I used to be struck by how waxy the cheese seemed to be. Whereas it had a good thickness, it did not actually ooze or stretch. It added a little bit of richness and creaminess to the sandwich.
The hen was moist inside however not juicy (and paled compared to the earlier Ch’King, which was typically bigger and higher high quality by way of taste and texture). The breading was evenly crispy the place it wasn’t lined in sauce or cheese however was soggy in any other case. As is typical, it was simply evenly seasoned.
The marinara sauce got here on each the highest and backside bun and supplied a barely seasoned, candy and tangy stewed tomato taste. It was pretty thick and clung to the sandwich properly with out dripping a lot (if in any respect). It offered the majority of the flavour for the sandwich.
The potato bun supplied a barely richer taste versus your common quick meals burger bun and a moister, softer texture.
Total, Burger King’s Italian Royal Crispy Hen was good sufficient and corresponding to the chain’s earlier Italian hen sandwiches though it might use a tad extra cheese or have some parmesan sprinkled in for an extra taste notice. In comparison with Wendy’s present hen parmesan-type sandwich, it is extra flavorful because of the further sauce however the Wendy’s model presents higher textures and higher cheese.
