McDonald's is trialling a new chicken burger and they've decided to do it in the Midlands!

The Crispy McFillet could potentially be added to the UK-wide menu, but before that, it's being tested in 41 restaurants across the Midlands.

The new burger, which is apparently in a sourdough-style bun and has a "hint of truffle" will be sold from Wednesday 30th March.

McDonald's chief marketing officer for the UK and Ireland, Michelle Graham-Clare, said: "We cannot wait to hear what our customers in the Midlands think of it."

The burger is also being trialled in nine McDonald's restaurants in County Cork in Ireland.
