If you’re a McDonald’s fan who wishes that it had more chicken items on the menu, then listen up. For the first time in four years, McDonald’s is adding a new permanent item to its menu: McCrispy Strips.

In an email sent to Daily Meal, the company shared that these new chicken strips will be available nationwide by May 5. They’re made with 100% white meat and are “coated with crispy golden-brown breading and bursting with a bold, new black pepper flavor.” Further, the new chicken strips come with a brand new sauce for dipping: the Creamy Chili Dip. The new sauce is described as “savory, sweet, and tangy” all at once.

Per the press release, the new items are in response to fans wanting another chicken item on the menu — specifically, another dippable chicken item, to go along with the McNuggets. Alyssa Buetikofer, the Chief Marketing and Customer Experience Officer at McDonald’s said in the statement, “The demand for chicken strips has been remarkable to see across the industry, so we knew we had to deliver something so craveable that it was worth the wait. We took our time, listened to our fans, and created a product we knew they would crave. And the best part is we’re just getting started.”
