Aldi's Frozen Chicken Fries Might Replace Your Next Burger King Run

If you're looking for a cheaper, better version of a well-known product, Aldi sells dupes of many popular brand-name foods. Aldi's Kirkwood brand chicken fries, for example, have been praised by shoppers for not only their delicious taste, but their similarity to Burger King's famous chicken fries. Made from white meat chicken with a crispy exterior, some Aldi customers even claim these fries are superior the ones sold at Burger King. 

Aldi's chicken fries are easy to make and can be ready in the air fryer in about 15 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit, though they can be prepared in the microwave if you're short on time. They're perfect as a quick snack and great with dipping sauces — some customers recommend using Chick-fil-A sauce, which Aldi carries a dupe of. Burger King's special seasoning blend remains a trade secret, but these chicken fries come pretty close to the real thing.

How do Aldi's chicken fries compare to Burger King's?

Burger King's chicken fries may be the original, but Aldi's version is a much better value. The popular fast food chain sells its chicken fries in sizes of four, eight, and 12 pieces, with prices ranging from around $3 to $8. At Aldi, shoppers can buy a 24-ounce bag for just $5.29 as of January 2026. 

Aldi's version may be cheaper, but Burger King's undisclosed blend of herbs and spices remains difficult to replicate, making the fries a less-than-perfect copycat for die-hard fans. The chain's chicken fries are a popular menu item, and they even ranked highly on our own list of Burger King chicken products. While Aldi may not have perfectly duplicated the exact flavor, many customers believe the chicken fries come close enough. 

Regardless of their ability to mimic Burger King's signature flavor profile, they make a great appetizer for a party or a midday snack.  And if you don't feel like making a trip to your local Burger King, Aldi's chicken fries will likely satisfy your craving just fine.
