If a classic chicken sandwich is a little too plain for your taste buds, then Wendy’s has answered your prayers with the latest addition to its menu.

But be warned… it’s a hot one.

The American chain opened its doors in the UK for the first time in 20 years in early 2021 and now it’s offering up a special treat for us – in the form of a Jalapeno Popper Chicken Sandwich.

There’s a whopping six slices of jalapenos alongside Wendy’s staple juicy spicy chicken fillet, three strips of Applewood smoked bacon, warm cheddar cheese and cream cheese.

That’s a big punch packed between those two buns.

Wendy’s boasts that the new Jalapeño Popper Chicken Sandwich will ‘elevate the bland chicken sandwich experience you get from the other guys.’

But you better get your hands on the spicy new addition quickly if you want to try it, because Wendy’s says it’s available for a limited time only.

Fast food fans seemed delighted that something with a little more heat has hit the menu.

One disgruntled Wendy’s lover commented: ‘Why limited?’

To which Wendy’s replied: ‘Nothing lasts forever Brendan.’

Another seemed desperate to try, writing: ‘I’d try it, IF YOU’D OPEN A RESTAURANT NEAR ME’.

But it’s not just the Jalapeño Popper Chicken Sandwich that’s hitting the menu.

Wendy’s has also unveiled new Jalapeño Baconator loaded fries which boast plenty of cheese and heat.

So there are two new tasty treats to try this summer.
