FAST FOOD NEWS: Burger King Chicken Parmesan Sandwich (2017)

Burger King Chicken Parmesan Sandwich 2017

Update: We reviewed it! Click here to read our review.

Yes, Burger King once had a chicken parmesan sandwich. But I believe that one had the chain’s Tendercrisp chicken, which has been replaced with the less trademark-y seasoned and breaded 100 percent white meat chicken filet. So, I guess with the chicken change this sandwich could be considered newish.

The 2017 version of the Chicken Parmesan Sandwich is also topped with Italian-style marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese, and shaved parmesan cheese on a toasted potato bun.

It has 570 calories, 25 grams of fat, 8 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 70 milligrams of cholesterol, 1340 milligrams of sodium, 57 grams of carbohydrates, 9 grams of sugar, and 32 grams of protein.
