ATLANTA – Chick-fil-A’s spicy chicken sandwich is undergoing a grilled transformation. The chicken chain is launching the new Grilled Spicy Chicken Deluxe Sandwich, available for a limited time.
The spicy sandwich features grilled marinated chicken in a spicy seasoning with Colby-Jack cheese, lettuce and tomato served on a toasted multigrain bun. Chick-fil-A also created a new Cilantro Lime Sauce specifically for the sandwich. The sauce packet is also available for a limited time.
Chick-fil-A first developed the Grilled Spicy Chicken Deluxe Sandwich and tested it in select markets in 2017. The offering received positive feedback from consumers, the company said, and will be now the first limited-time entree featured on the national menu since Summer 2019.
“We know guests are looking to add more variety to their meals, especially after a year where new food experiences were limited,” said Leslie Neslage, director of menu and packaging at Chick-fil-A, Inc. “The Grilled Spicy Chicken Deluxe Sandwich is a flavorful twist on our current grilled offerings that we have been testing in select markets since 2017, and it provides a bold break from the standard lunch and dinner routines. We dedicate an average of eighteen months to testing a new item before adding it to the national menu, which allows us time to ensure we can best support our restaurant team members while delivering a taste guests will love.”
