Chick-fil-A could be adding more heat to its menu. While the spicy chicken sandwich has been a staple on the Chick-fil-A menu for almost a decade, the company is looking to expand its spicier offerings.
Testing in Philadelphia, Central Texas, South Texas, and Phoenix began last year, and customers can still try the new Spicy Chick-n-Strips, which the company describes as a combination of two customer favorites, the original Chick-fil-A Chick-n-Strips and the Spicy Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich.
On January 14, in Phoenix, Yuma, and Tucson, Chick-fil-A launched three new spicy items to test: Grilled Spicy Deluxe Sandwich, Spicy Chick-n-Strips Biscuit, and the Grilled Spicy Deluxe Bundle (which is available on the catering menu).
“We’re excited to spice-up the menu and see what happens in these test markets,” said Matt Reed from Chick-fil-A’s menu development team, in a statement.
Chick-fil-A’s new Spicy Chick-n-Strips Biscuit is a breakfast sandwich that’s topped with two Spicy Chick-n-Strips, which are seasoned with a blend of spicy peppers, on a buttermilk biscuit.
The Grilled Spicy Chicken Deluxe Sandwich is a lighter take on Chick-fil-A’s Spicy Chicken Sandwich. The brand marinates in a spice blend before it’s grilled and then topped with lettuce, tomato, Colby-Jack cheese, and a new Cilantro Lime sauce. Chick-fil-A tested this sandwich on customers in Orlando, St. Louis, and Knoxville, however, it’s new to the Phoenix market.
