There’s a new, unexpected player in the hot chicken sandwich war: Taco Bell.
The Irvine-based fast food giant will soon be testing an item called the Crispy Chicken Sandwich Taco, which a news release calls both a sandwich and a taco.
The sandwiches will go on sale for $2.49 each in Nashville, Tenn., and Charlotte, N.C., on March 11. Southern Californians will have to wait for a while. Taco Bell plans a nationwide debut later this year.
The sandwiches feature chicken meat marinated in jalapeño buttermilk, seasoned, and battered with a tortilla chip coating.
The chicken is folded into a piece of bread that resembles a pita and is spread with creamy chipotle sauce.
A spicy version of the sandwich includes a a slice of jalapeño that resembles pickle slices in Nashville chicken sandwiches.
