Guatemalan-born brand adds bold new Queso Bacon, Buffalo Slaw Chicken Sandwiches to menu starting May 7

DALLAS, May 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Pollo Campero, the Guatemalan-born fast casual restaurant specializing in uniquely flavorful chicken and a diverse menu, has two delicious new reasons for fried chicken sandwich fans to visit with the introduction of the Queso Bacon Chicken Sandwich and the Buffalo Slaw Chicken Sandwich.

Available across all U.S. restaurants starting May 7, the Queso Bacon Chicken Sandwich features Pollo Campero's famous all-white-meat, hand-breaded fried chicken fillet topped with Pollo Campero's new green chile queso and smoky bacon on a brioche bun, creating a rich, cheesy and savory flavor combination. The Buffalo Slaw Chicken Sandwich brings together the brand's signature coleslaw and tangy buffalo sauce for fresh and zesty, in-your-face flavor.

"Bold flavors are what Pollo Campero is all about, and we're seeing more and more that consumers are looking for mashup options that combine multiple flavors into one perfect bite. Our new premium chicken sandwiches deliver on that trend at a great value," said Pollo Campero Research & Development Culinary Manager Mark Younggren. "Our flavorful chicken sandwiches remain a guest favorite, so we wanted to have some fun and take them up a few notches with premium ingredients that deliver an innovative culinary twist for guests."

Priced from $6.90, the Queso Bacon Chicken Sandwich and Buffalo Slaw Chicken Sandwich are the first new sandwiches on Pollo Campero's menu since the debut of its popular Spicy Chicken Sandwich in 2022. That sandwich, in turn, followed the introduction of Pollo Campero's original Chicken Sandwich in 2021. Guests can order the sandwiches alone or in a meal with a choice of Pollo Campero sides, such as Sweet Plantains, Yuca Fries or slow-roasted Campero Beans. The complete menu, which also includes empanadas, salads, bowls and family meals, is available here.
