Wendy's Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit is part of their ongoing breakfast test and consists of a crispy fried whole breast chicken fillet topped with real honey butter sandwiched inside a Southern-style buttermilk biscuit.
One sandwich set me back $2.69.
The chicken has a fairly thin, crispy breading that's lightly seasoned. Somehow, the breading manages to be different than both Wendy's Chicken Nuggets and their
Home-style Chicken Fillet. It's thinner than the home-style and not as bready as the nuggets.
The biscuit has a very soft, dense, spongy texture that's different than either McDonald's or Chick-fil-A, but still good in its own way. I like the texture which almost melts in your mouth and there's a nice buttery flavor to it beyond the honey butter. However, that softness carries all the way to the crust where it has a barely-there crispness.
Overall, the Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit is good stuff. As a fan of biscuits with honey and butter, the addition of chicken works here and makes for some morning yum.
