Shortly after launching its Tatsuta Chicken Burger range, McDonald’s Japan has returned with a pair of variations that use rice for buns.
The Rice Chicken Tatsuta and Rice Chicken Tatsuta Setouchi Lemon Tartar feature rice-buns made from domestic rice. After being cooked, the rice is shaped and seasoned with a fragrant soy sauce before being broiled for a crispy outer layer.
The unique crunchy exterior and fluffy interior rice-buns sandwich a fried chicken fillet flavored with ginger and soy sauce on a bed of crisp shredded cabbage and creamy, spicy sauce. The Rice Chicken Tatsuta Setouchi Lemon Tartar variation is finished with grated lemon from the southern Setouchi region and a helping of pairing tartar sauce.
