QDOBA and Cholula have combined powers for a new limited-time menu item

QDOBA is sometimes the forgotten burrito joint but this doesn’t mean they aren’t able to put together a great menu. For some, QDOBA’s queso is legendary and they offered consumers guacamole long before Chipotle started to. According to Chewboom, QDOBA has added the Cholula Hot and Sweet Chicken to its menu.

This exciting new menu entree features chicken grilled in house and then tossed in a mixture of Cholula Original Hot Sauce and sweet honey. For fanatics of a sweet heat combination, this is a must-try.

Cholula has become a go-to for many everyday hot sauce lovers and the addition of sweet honey should provide tremendous balance to this chicken. Cholula tends to bring flavor and not just heat with their hot sauces. It’s a favorite for many including myself.

When speaking about the new entree, QDOBA CEO Keith Guilbault had this to say:

"At QDOBA, our brand goal is to bring flavor to people’s lives, and in Cholula, we’ve found another brand that shares that purpose. We strive to bring our guests the best Mexican flavors, with entrees freshly prepared every day, and the launch of Cholula® Hot & Sweet Chicken underscores that goal while giving our fans another reason to love QDOBA."

QDOBA is letting you pick how you want to enjoy the Cholula Hot & Sweet Chicken

In promoting the new chicken option, QDOBA also has a new Cholula Hot & Sweet Chicken Bowl. This tasty sounding dish includes the chicken along with cilantro lime rice, black beans, pico de gallo, sour cream, and finished with cotija cheese. The dish is the brainchild of executive chef Katy Velazquez.

If eating the Cholula Hot & Sweet Chicken as part of a bowl is not for you, you can still enjoy it as part of any existing entree. I’m sure you’re picturing your Cholula Hot & Sweet Chicken burrito as you read this.

Make sure you get to QDOBA soon because the Cholula Hot & Sweet Chicken is a limited time option on the menu. You can try all the different possibilities with the chicken.
