    The Burger King chicken nuggets officially made their debut in a menu revision in 1985 to address the absence of a chicken based finger product to McDonald's Chicken McNuggets. Original portion sizes were six-, nine-, twelve and a twenty-five piece party pack. At the time the product had to be withdrawn over limited availability of chicken meat from producers, the product was re-introduced about six months later. Originally made with sliced fillets of chicken, the product was reformulated into a formed, chopped-chicken product several years later. Beginning in 2006, BK began to reconfigured the shape of them from strips to three pointed crowns which were sold in the U.S., Canada, and other markets until 2011.

    In January 2008, Burger King reformulated these products to eliminate trans fat in the manufacturing of the product, expecting to replace the preceding product by Summer 2008.

With purchase of Burger King by 3G Capital in 2010, the company began introducing new and reformulated products. Chicken Tenders were the first product line altered, with a new version introduced in March 2011. In January 2013, Burger King changed the name of the product to BK Chicken Nuggets and reconfigured the shape of them to slightly resemble the shape of Chicken McNuggets more in 2014.
