Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen, a division of AFC Enterprises, celebrates this Lenten season with the return of its Butterfly Shrimp, available for a limited time only February 20 through March 25.

Popeyes Butterfly Shrimp is slow-marinated in a unique blend of Louisiana seasonings, battered and fried up crispy. Served in Popeyes original Seafood Tackle Box, Popeyes Butterfly Shrimp features eight shrimp over a bed of Cajun Fries with a freshly-baked buttermilk biscuit for only $4.99.

 

In a real Louisiana kitchen, you would be served a variety of seafood far beyond the typical fish sandwich,” says Chief Global Brand Officer Dick Lynch.

 

At Popeyes you can find real, quality seafood with real Louisiana-inspired flavor unlike any other QSR brand. The Butterfly Shrimp Tackle Box is a complete and satisfying meal that swims against the tide and it is back for a limited time only.”
