Chicken McWings

What is it?

Bone-in chicken wing pieces are seasoned and cooked until the skin turns crisp, with meat that stays attached to the bone. Compared with McDonald's nuggets, these have less coating and more of the bird’s own texture, so you’re dealing with skin, cartilage and meat in the usual wing shape. Seasoning runs savoury with a light spice, and the cooking leaves the outside a bit crisper than the interior. In McDonald's Australia lineup, they sit closer to the nugget family than to burgers or wraps, but the eating experience is different because you’re pulling the meat from the bone rather than biting through a fully boneless piece.
