After taking the time to perfect its recipe, Portillo's has finally thrown its hat into the chicken sandwich wars with the debut of its new Spicy Chicken Sandwich and Hot Giardiniera Sauce.
Portillo’s originally began testing its new Spicy Chicken Sandwich earlier this year. And now, after a successful test run, the spicy sandwich is rolling out chainwide.
Of course, Portillo's is not the only chain with a chicken sandwich offering, which is why the brand has created a product that will stand out amongst the competition. The secret behind Portillo’s Spicy Chicken Sandwich is the brand's Hot Giardiniera Sauce, which is a creamy sauce infused with tangy pickled relish. In fact, this sauce is so delicious that the brand is even selling limited-edition bottles of it for a limited time.
