Love Me, Tender: Checkers® & Rally's® Celebrates Debut of First-Ever Fry-Seasoned Chicken Tenders with Special Promotions This Month

TAMPA, Fla., Feb. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Checkers & Rally's, an iconic and innovative drive-thru restaurant chain known for bold and flavorful food at an exceptional value and its people-first attitude, today announced the launch of its all-new, first-ever fry-seasoned chicken tenders. 

Available nationwide Feb. 21 and inspired by the irresistible seasoning from the #1 Most Craveable Fries in America, as named by Restaurant Business' 2020 Technomic Ignite Consumer Data, the tender-tastic menu addition is fully loaded with flavor, with white meat crispy coated in Checkers & Rally's famous fry seasoning for a signature zesty taste. The three-, five- and eight-piece orders are available as part of a combo meal in each respective size.

In conjunction with National Singles Awareness Day on Feb. 15, Checkers & Rally's is giving away a free "single" tender with each purchase at participating restaurants. No one needs to be "cooped" or coupled up to feel the love, as guests can receive one free tender with every order on the holiday, while supplies last.

"Given the incredible popularity of the #1 Most Craveable Fries in America, we've decided to double down and take our legendary fry seasoning to new heights with our first-ever fry-seasoned chicken tenders," said Frances Allen, President & CEO of Checkers Drive-In Restaurants, Inc. "No matter your relationship status, Checkers & Rally's invites you to feel our love by receiving a free single tender as part of every order on Feb. 15. The delectable taste of our new tenders is sure to delight everyone's hearts and taste buds."
