This week, customers can get a free chicken sandwich from Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen, and they don’t even have to stand in line to get it.

The Miami-based chicken chain Monday announced a new delivery deal with DoorDash. Customers can get a free chicken sandwich combo meal through Jan. 19, along with free delivery, when they place an order of $20 or more through the third-party service and use the code “chickenwinner.”

DoorDash covers 80% of the country and provides delivery from more than 1,000 Popeyes locations.

“Over the past few months, we’ve worked closely with Popeyes to build a robust partnership,” Toby Espinosa, vice president of business development for DoorDash, said in a statement. He said Popeyes is “one of the most requested stores to date.”

Popeyes will also be part of DoorDash’s subscription service DashPass, through which customers pay $9.99 a month for unlimited free delivery on orders of $12 or more.
