McDonald's Fires Up Fall Menu with Spicy McNuggets

McDonald's is bringing back its popular Spicy Chicken McNuggets nationwide starting September 1. This limited-time menu item features the nuggets coated in a spicy tempura blend of aged cayenne and chili peppers. For an added layer of heat, customers can pair them with the new Mighty Hot Sauce, which combines crushed red pepper, spicy chilis, savory garlic, and a hint of sweetness.

These fiery nuggets were first introduced in September 2020 and have reappeared in regional markets since then. Their nationwide return is part of a broader fall menu update that also includes new caramel apple pie flavored McCafé coffees and a Red Bull Dragonberry Energizer beverage. The Spicy Chicken McNuggets are not a permanent addition and will be available for a limited time only.
