Zaxby’s relaunches its limited-time menu item, the 'Asian Zensation Zalad,' offering consumers a flavorful option for their meals. This salad features the chain's signature chicken, with choices of hand-breaded 'Fried Chicken Fingerz' or marinated 'Grilled Chicken.' It is served on "a bed of freshly chopped mixed greens, red cabbage, and carrots, and is topped with crispy wonton strips, Asian Slaw, and honey sesame Teriyaki sauce," to create a satisfying fusion and healthy dish.
In addition to the Asian Zensation Zalad, Zaxby’s will also offer 'Veggie Egg Rolls.' These egg rolls are "hand-rolled in a crispy wonton wrapper and filled with a mixture of shredded cabbage, carrots, green onion, and seasonings." Consumers can choose to include one egg roll with their salad or opt for two egg rolls as a standalone side, which are served with a Sweet & Spicy dipping sauce, enhancing the overall experience.
