Popeyes is permanently broadening its menu beyond chicken sandwiches.

Popeyes is introducing three new chicken wing flavors nationwide, including Honey BBQ, Roasted Garlic Parmesan, and Ghost Pepper, starting Wednesday. Additionally, the fast-food chain is adding two more flavors, Signature Hot and Sweet ’N Spicy, to its menu.

"Popeyes is constantly pushing boundaries and redefining expectations from fast food brands, as stated by Sami Siddiqui, president of Popeyes North America. Our guests crave bolder Louisiana-inspired wing flavors, and we are thrilled to unveil our new wing lineup," said Sami Siddiqui, president of Popeyes North America.

The Ghost Pepper wings were an overnight success when tested earlier this year, and the Sweet ’N Spicy wings have been the chain's best-performing product since its chicken sandwich.

For three years, Popeyes has been refining its wing recipes, and starting from $5.99, a six-piece of the new wings will be available.
