“In 1930, in a humble service station in Corbin, Kentucky, 40-year old Harland Sanders began feeding hungry travelers,” KFC’s website said. “Sanders spent the next nine years (now that’s dedication) perfecting his secret blend of 11 herbs and spices, as well as the basic cooking technique we still use today.”

The Original Recipe is so famous and coveted that its original copy is locked away in a secret vault, a press release from the company said.

KFC’s test market for the chicken tenders include the following restaurants:

  • 5188 Pleasant Ave., Fairfield
  • 3361 Towne Blvd, Franklin
  • 1001 Northwest Washington Blvd., Hamilton
  • 550 East Main, Lebanon
  • 4340 Hamilton Middletown Road, Liberty Township
  • 2211 N. Verity Pky., Middletown
  • 844 West Central Ave., Springboro
  • 7469 Tylersville Road, West Chester

Customers can order three Original Recipe chicken tenders with a dipping sauce and biscuit for $5 or a KFC Fill Up Box with four Original Recipe chicken tender, four pieces of fried chicken, a side of french fries, four biscuits and four dipping sauces for $20.

The Original Recipe chicken tenders are only available at select restaurants. Dayton-area KFC restaurants have Extra Crispy fried chicken tenders.
