The QDOBA Habanero Lime Steak is making its way to participating locations as a limited time offering perfect for patrons to pick as their protein in an array of menu items. The steak starts off with a premium cut of beef that's grilled to perfection before being tossed in a spicy habanero sauce, lime juice and cilantro before a final sautéing. This final step over an open flame helps to further elevate the flavor of both the steak itself and the aforementioned seasonings.
The QDOBA Habanero Lime Steak is expected to be right at home within the brand's existing range of protein options that include pulled pork, seasoned ground beef, grilled steak, brisket birria, grilled adobo chicken and Cholula Hot & Sweet Chicken.
