KFC Singapore is back with an exciting new flavour that promises to tantalise taste buds and add a smoky, nostalgic twist to a familiar favourite. The brand has officially launched the Smoky Kecap Manis Chicken, a limited-time menu item inspired by the rich, sweet soy sauce that has long been a staple in Southeast Asian kitchens. This is not just another chicken flavour—it’s a carefully crafted culinary experience designed to be both comforting and adventurous at the same time.
The Smoky Kecap Manis Chicken takes the beloved sweet soy sauce, commonly used in dishes like satay, nasi goreng, and stir-fries, and transforms it into a decadent glaze. Each piece of chicken is coated in a thick, glossy kecap manis reduction with a gentle smokiness that elevates the flavour without overwhelming the palate. The finishing touches of fried shallots and fresh green onions provide both aroma and texture, giving each bite a satisfying crunch and an added layer of depth. It’s a combination that manages to feel familiar while introducing a bold new profile for chicken lovers.
This new flavour will be available across KFC Singapore outlets from 25 February to 7 April 2026, coinciding with the Ramadan period. Customers can enjoy it whether they choose to dine-in, takeaway, or order through delivery platforms, though it’s important to note that it will only be available while stocks last. The timing makes it a great addition to shared meals during festive gatherings, or even as a treat for those looking to try something different from the usual menu.
A first for KFC Singapore: Portable Smoky Kecap Manis Sauce Bottle
For fans who want to bring the Smoky Kecap Manis experience beyond their chicken bucket, KFC Singapore is introducing its first-ever portable Smoky Kecap Manis Sauce Bottle, priced at $6.95. The sauce inside is the same irresistible blend that graces the new chicken flavour, now conveniently packaged for home use. It’s perfect for dipping, drizzling, or adding that extra punch to everyday meals, whether it’s noodles, rice, or even grilled vegetables.
The bottle itself is a piece of art. KFC has collaborated with local multidisciplinary artist Aida Sa’ad, also known as Yellow Mushmellow, to create a design that celebrates togetherness and the joy of everyday moments. Her vibrant, playful artwork mirrors the warmth and richness of the sauce inside, making the bottle a delightful collector’s item as well as a versatile kitchen companion.
Delivery-only promotions make it even more tempting
For those who prefer the comfort of home, KFC Singapore has lined up a delivery-exclusive promotion. The Smoky Kecap Manis Family Feast, priced at $44.95, not only includes a generous portion of the new chicken but also comes with a free KFC x Coke Radium Bag. This iridescent crossbody bag is stylish and practical, designed for everyday use, which adds a lifestyle element to the meal. It’s a clever way to combine a delicious dining experience with a collectible item that fans will enjoy long after their feast is over.

For families and friends gathering during Ramadan or simply seeking a special treat, this promotion offers a satisfying combination of taste, value, and creativity.

Whether ordering for a family dinner, a casual get-together with friends, or simply indulging in a personal treat, the Smoky Kecap Manis Chicken and sauce bottle are designed to enhance the dining experience with both flavour and flair.
