As a kid, Kentucky Fried Chicken was part of our Christmas tradition — a big bucket of greasy chicken was our lunchtime treat. It’s been a long time since KFC chicken seemed appealing to me; it always smells fantastic but I just can’t enjoy it anymore. Except for one item: popcorn chicken. Once in a while, if I crave KFC, that’s what I reach for.
Today, we were debating lunch and we had settled on nachos but then, walking across Douglas to grab a coffee, we caught the scent of KFC and one of us suggested getting popcorn chicken to go on the nachos. Ten bucks later and we had a box of that to add to lunch.
Lemme tell ya: it was worth it. Shawn whipped up individual servings of nachos and split the popcorn chicken between them. With cheese on top and all the other fixings, it was a low-brow lunch that put smiles on all our faces.
I feel like this could be a new tradition. 😉
