McDonald’s just added a revamped Big Mac to their Canadian menu: a version of the classic sandwich, but with chicken.
As reported by Chew Boom, the chain announced the debut of their latest creation on March 7th, and revealed that fans can now try it at participating locations across the country. (No word for the US yet, but here’s hoping it’ll head here soon!) Here’s what we know about the Chicken Big Mac:

McDonald’s Announces ‘Chicken Big Mac’ For Canadian Restaurants
The new sandwich features “two crispy chicken patties, Big Mac sauce, fresh lettuce, processed cheddar cheese, and tangy pickles on a freshly toasted sesame seed bun,” the outlet notes.

The OG Big Mac, as fans know, includes “two 100% pure all beef patties and Big Mac sauce sandwiched between a sesame seed bun,” as McDonald’s writes. It’s topped off with “pickles, crisp, shredded lettuce, finely chopped onion, and a slice of American cheese,” so the new chicken one isn’t too different from the original.
