I had been starring at a sheet of El Pollo Loco coupon for days.  The picture of their new grilled chicken sandwiches looked so good.  I tried very hard to control my urge for fast food because the wedding is only a month away.  But no, I just couldn't do it anymore.  El Pollo Loco, you won!


Jalapeno Chicken Sandwich ($4.29)

There are two new grilled chicken sandwiches: Guacamole and Jalapeno.  Both are made with citrus-marinated, flame-grilled chicken breast, crisp lettuce and pico de gallo on a telera roll.  Jalapeno sandwich includes pepper jack cheese and a southwest sauce.  With a coupon, a sandwich is only $2.99.  I picked Jalapeno with the thought that spicy food probably speeds up metabolism to burn more calories.  Is that true?




The chicken breast was really tender and had a lot of flavor.  Lettuce was fresh.  Pico de gallo salsa was great.  The southwest sauce was creamy and slightly spicy.  Jalapeno and pepper jack cheese added heat.  The telera roll was soft and fluffy.  I LOVE this sandwich.

The new chicken sandwich from El Pollo Loco is yummy.  Now I am feel so tempted to go back again to try the guacamole one.
