The Chick-fil-A menu is heating up.
On Friday, the fast food chain announced that it will launch its spicy grilled chicken sandwich across the country from Monday.
The sandwich is made with “grilled chicken marinated in a spicy seasoning, served on toasted multigrain brioche bread with Colby-Jack cheese, lettuce and tomato,” the ad said.
The Grilled Spicy Chicken Deluxe Sandwich – which will only be available for a limited time – also comes with a new limited-time Cilantro Lime Sauce that was created just for the new sandwich, the company said.

Chick-fil-A already has a spicy chicken sandwich and a deluxe spicy sandwich on its menu, but both are made with breaded chicken instead of grilled.
Chick-fil-A is launching its new spiced grilled chicken sandwich nationwide on Monday for a limited time.

According to one of Chick-fil-A’s senior culinary developers, the spicy marinade for the latest sandwich is inspired by the chain’s existing spicy sandwich recipe, but incorporates “additional flavors and spices”.
“The Grilled Spicy Deluxe marinade offers a bigger and bolder flavor, but does not add heat,” said Angela Wadlington in a statement.

Chick-fil-A has previously tested Grilled Spicy Deluxe Sandwich in selected markets from 2017.
When it comes to the Chick-fil-A menu on Monday, the newest addition will be the first limited-time entry to be featured on the national menu since the summer of 2019, the company said in its announcement.

“We know that guests are looking to add more variety to their meals, especially after a year when new eating experiences have been limited,” said Leslie Neslage, director of menu and packaging at Chick-fil-A, in a statement. “Grilled Spicy Deluxe offers the spicy flavors that our guests know and love, now available in the grilled option.”

“We spent an average of 18 to 24 months to test a new item before adding it to the national menu, and Grilled Spicy Deluxe received positive feedback when it was previously tested in selected markets,” added Neslage.
