Well this is interesting, KFC is rolling out a new dish and it’s a bit bizarre.
They’re introducing a limited-time entrée that mashes up two of our all-time favorite dishes – pizza and fried chicken. Yes, you heard it right. Meet the “Chizza” – a culinary creation that promises to take your taste buds on an adventure they won’t forget.
Two perfectly fried chicken filets, crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, topped with zesty marinara sauce, ooey-gooey mozzarella cheese, and crispy pepperoni. If you are interested the special dish will be avablie beginning on 2/26/2024.
To kick things off and get everyone hyped about the Chizza’s grand entrance, KFC is hosting a pop-up “Chizzeria” – yes, you heard that right, a Chizzeria. This unique pop-up will be giving out free samples of the Chizza from their 242 E 14th Street restaurant in New York City on Friday and Saturday afternoon.
KFC is introducing the international smash hit, Chizza (“cheet-za”), to KFC menus in the U.S.
Also returning to KFC is Blackberry Lemonade.
Chizza will hit participating KFC locations nationwide starting February 26th. 👀

Now, the Chizza isn’t entirely new it has been an “international smash hit” in KFC restaurants across the globe – from the Philippines to Korea, Taiwan, India, Thailand, Germany, Spain, and Mexico. The Philippines had the honor of being the first to introduce the Chizza back in 2015. It seems the world can’t get enough of this fusion feast, and now, it’s America’s turn to get a slice of the action.
If you’re planning to try it out, you’ll have the option to enjoy the Chizza as a standalone dish or go for a combo that pairs it with fries and a medium drink. Talk about a complete meal deal!
The Chizza is a nod to KFC’s innovative spirit, reminiscent of the “Double Down” sandwich that turned heads by using chicken filets as buns. KFC in an attempt to drive sales is not stopping at the Chizza. With initiatives like the Smash’d Potato Bowls and the rollout of KFC’s first loyalty rewards program in the U.S., it’s clear they are trying to make a buck in this economy.
No offense to anybody out there, but I’ll stick to chicken and waffles if I’m going to spice things up.
