Taco Bell recently released five new menu items across the country, including the highly anticipated Mike’s Hot Honey Diablo Sauce to pair with Crispy Chicken Nuggets. The chain also started testing four additional items at select locations.
The Loaded Steak & Jalapeño Topped Fries, available nationwide for $4.99, are a limited-time offer that adds crispy fries topped with nacho cheese and jalapeño sauce, grilled marinated steak, and pickled jalapeños to the menu. This update is a welcome change from the removal of Nacho Fries.
In select locations in Oklahoma City and Charlotte, North Carolina, Taco Bell is testing four new menu items featuring Cantina Chicken. The Cantina Chicken Quesadilla and Cantina Chicken Quesadilla Rollup are available at these locations, offering slow-roasted chicken, melty cheese, creamy chipotle sauce, and Avocado Verde Salsa for dipping.
The test menu also includes Crispy Chicken Tacos and Crispy Chicken Burritos in Charlotte. These items feature fried chicken, purple cabbage, lettuce, pico de gallo, Cheddar cheese, and a choice of Ranchero or Avocado Ranch sauce. The Crispy Chicken Burrito comes with a grilled flour tortilla.
While these menu test items are not yet available nationwide, they may be added to the menu in the future if customers respond positively to them. In the meantime, customers can try the Loaded Steak & Jalapeño Topped Fries, which are a welcome addition to Taco Bell’s menu.
