“Exciting New Addition Arriving at Chipotle: Chipotle Honey Chicken!
Prepare yourself for a tasty surprise at Chipotle as a new menu item is on its way! Following its success as a limited-time favorite among consumers, Chipotle has officially announced the addition of Chipotle Honey Chicken to its menu. Set to launch nationwide, including Canada and the U.K., on Friday, March 7, this new offering first went through testing in Nashville and Sacramento, Calif., in 2024.
Described as the top-performing limited-time offer in test markets, Chipotle Honey Chicken has received high praise. Chris Brandt, the chief brand officer, expressed his enthusiasm for customers to experience this bold new protein with their favorite orders. The dish offers a perfect balance of heat and sweetness to complement Chipotle’s fresh, real ingredients that are prepared daily.
Customers in France and Germany can look forward to enjoying Chipotle Honey Chicken on their menus starting Wednesday, March 12. This delectable dish can be customized to your liking in-store, online, or through the Chipotle app. During the test phase, a popular way to enjoy this new item was with white rice, black beans, fajita veggies, fresh tomato salsa, roasted chili-corn salsa, sour cream, cheese, and lettuce.
With hot honey trending on the National Restaurant Association’s “What’s Hot 2025 Culinary Forecast,” Chipotle Honey Chicken is made from fresh chicken grilled to perfection, seasoned with savory Mexican spices, and marinated in a blend of seared, smoked chipotle peppers and a hint of pure honey. This versatile protein can be added to any entrée of your choice.
Chipotle has a history of bringing back limited-time favorites based on customer feedback. Last year, the return of Chicken al Pastor was announced after overwhelming requests from fans. This dish features fresh grilled chicken marinated in a rich blend of seared morita peppers, ground achiote, and a touch of pineapple.
