Jollibee launches Honey Garlic Chicken across Canada starting Oct. 15

Jollibee is adding a sweet-and-savory kick to its menu. Starting October 15, the fast-food chain launches two honey garlic items across Canada.

The Honey Garlic Bone-In Fried Chicken takes the chain's signature fried chicken, coats it in honey garlic sauce, and tops it with fried garlic bits. It's available in a 2-piece combo, as well as 6-piece and 10-piece bucket offerings.

The second item, Honey Garlic Chicken Sandwich, features a fried chicken breast fillet in the same glaze, topped with fresh cucumber slices and fried garlic bits, and served on a toasted brioche-style bun.

Luis Velasco, senior vice president and marketing head for Jollibee North America, said the chain is betting on the familiar-meets-bold approach. "At Jollibee, we believe great food should bring unexpected joy to your day. With our new Honey Garlic Fried Chicken and Chicken Sandwich, we're delivering the perfect balance of familiar comfort and bold flavour innovation. Whether you're a long-time Jollibee fan or trying us for the very first time, this sweet and savoury sauce offers just the right kick to elevate your lunch or dinner."

Jollibee joins other Canadian chains rolling out bold new flavours. Jimmy John's recently brought back the Picklewich, A&W launched a collaboration with Bull's-Eye barbecue sauce, and Taco Bell teamed up with Olivia Rodrigo for a twist on its Baja Blast.
