There are some menu items at McDonald’s that are simply iconic. Whether we are looking at the Big Mac, their fries or even the McNuggets, there is something about a McDonald’s meal that satisfies our cravings. And when it comes to their chicken, they really go all out with the sauce.
Although we definitely don’t think about chicken right off the bat when we think of McDonald’s, they’re trying to change that. Not only have they added a new permanent menu item in the form of their McCrispy Strips, but they also added a new dipping sauce to go with it. And I have to say that I am obsessed with this new dipping sauce.
The Creamy Chili Dip is a perfect accompaniment to McDonald’s chicken
The new Creamy Chili Dip is a creamy dipping sauce that delivers just the right amount of kick in every bite. It’s almost like a sweet heat, with a creamy finish.
I had the opportunity to try both the strips and this dip, and they are a perfect pairing. That being said, I also got to compare this new dip to some of their classic dips and I was quite impressed. If you like a gentle kick to your taste buds, you may want to check out this new Creamy Chili Dip. While it doesn’t top their sweet-and-sour sauce, the honey mustard, or even the ranch, it is still a top-tier dipping sauce. In fact, I would actually go out of my way to grab this dip for more than just the strips.
McDonald’s describes their new dip as savory, sweet and tangy. And they are not wrong. You definitely get the tang in every bite, and I do think this is a more savory dipping sauce. The only thing I didn’t quite get was the sweet aspect of it. That being said, the creaminess does cut the tang so that could be that element of sweetness that they are talking about.
Whether you snag this dipping sauce for your nuggets or the strips, you will definitely want to give this a try if you’re a fan of McDonald’s and they’re dipping sauces.
