Review: Popeyes - Wicked Chicken

Popeyes' Wicked Chicken is a limited-time, slightly different, thinner take on their Louisiana Tenders. Basically, they are long, thin strips of battered chicken breast meat. You'll notice that my particular order is a bit smaller than the advertised box and comes with Mashed Potatoes instead of Cajun Fries.

New to Popeyes' menu, Wicked Chicken are thin strips of all white meat chicken marinated with authentic Louisiana seasonings, hand-battered and breaded in the restaurants, and then deep-fried till crispy.

Wicked Chicken is different from Popeye's tender in that they're cut thinner so that they curl while cooking. My worry would be that since the chicken is cut into thin strips, it might be prone to drying out in the fryer.
