Our Popcorn Chicken represents the best of Zilford's Fried Chicken in convenient, bite-sized form. At Foothills Foods, we understand that sometimes you want all the quality and flavor of our signature fried chicken in a format that's perfect for snacking, sharing, or eating on the go. That's exactly what our popcorn chicken delivers – premium quality chicken in addictively crunchy, perfectly seasoned bite-sized pieces.
Each piece starts with tender premium chicken that's been brined for a minimum of 12 hours. This crucial step ensures that even these small pieces retain maximum moisture and flavor. After brining, we coat each piece in our signature seasoned breading blend – the same quality coating we use on all our Zilford's fried chicken. The result is a perfectly crispy golden exterior that delivers a satisfying crunch with every bite, protecting the juicy, flavorful chicken inside.
What makes our popcorn chicken special is the attention to detail and quality ingredients. Unlike typical fast-food popcorn chicken, our pieces feature real chicken that's been properly prepared using traditional methods. We avoid preservatives in our signature dishes, ensuring you get authentic, quality fried chicken every time. The generous portions and reasonable pricing make our popcorn chicken perfect for feeding groups, families, or satisfying your own cravings.
The versatility of popcorn chicken makes it ideal for any occasion. Serve it as an appetizer at your next gathering, pack it for a satisfying lunch, add it to salads for extra protein, or simply enjoy it as a snack with your favorite dipping sauce. We offer a variety of premium sauces including ranch, honey mustard, BBQ, and our signature Nashville hot sauce to complement the crispy chicken.
Our Popcorn Chicken is ideal for sharing with friends and family. The bite-sized format makes it perfect for game day, movie nights, or casual gatherings. Pair it with our Twist Potatoes for the ultimate fried food experience, or order it alongside our other Zilford's fried chicken offerings for a complete feast.
