In 1939, Colonel Harland Sanders first gave the world a taste of his most famous creation, Original Recipe� Kentucky Fried Chicken, featuring that secret blend of 11 herbs. In 1952, he signed up his first franchisee and thus began the legend that is KFC, the largest chicken fast-food empire in the world. Millions of people have come to love his one of a kind chicken, home-style side dishes and hot and fresh biscuits.

The Original Recipe is what made Colonel Sanders and KFC famous. He developed the secret formula of 11 herbs and spices in the 1930's in Corbin, Kentucky, and it still defines the irresistible flavor of KFC today. We bread juicy pieces of chicken in this world-renowned seasoning and lightly fry it to golden perfection.

KFC's Extra Crispy chicken is freshly prepared with a flaky breading and then fried to a crispy golden brown. You'll even hear the crunch as you bite through the crusty coating and get to the mouthwatering, tender, juicy chicken.

The KFC Snacker Sandwich

This is one of KFC's most popular sandwiches. It's an all white meat chicken strip double-breaded for extra crispy crunch, topped with fresh lettuce and a kick of pepper mayo sauce, served on a warm sesame seed bun.

Side Dishes

Other than fried chicken, many KFC restaurants serve side dishes like coleslaw, various potato-based items (including potato wedges, and mashed potatoes with gravy), biscuits, corn on the cob and, outside of the U.S. french fries and poutine.

KFC also offers other entrées such as Popcorn Chicken, pot pies, chicken strips, hamburgers, pork ribs, Honey BBQ wings, sandwiches and desserts — though not all may be found in all locations, particularly in non-U.S.locations. Some sides are available only in a particular region.

KFC Bowls

The Mashed Potato Bowl start with a generous serving of our creamy mashed potatoes, layered with sweet corn and loaded with bite-sized pieces of crispy chicken. Then we drizzle it all with our signature home-style gravy and top it off with a shredded three-cheese blend. It's all your favorite flavors coming together.

The KFC Biscuit Bowls add a new layer of flavor to the KFC Famous Bowls which were recently recognized as the most memorable new product launched in 2006. The original KFC Famous Bowls were instantly famous because of the hearty layers of mashed potatoes, sweet corn, bite sized crispy chicken and three-cheese blend.

Now, KFC Biscuit Bowls raise the lunch-time bar through the addition of a famous KFC home-style buttermilk biscuit, complete with white gravy. It's the final "crowning" layer that makes the new KFC Biscuit Bowls ideal for Americans looking for a little more out of their lunches.
