In the realm of fast food, the Jalapeno Chicken Sandwich from Carl's Jr. was up there as one of the best spicy chicken sandwiches I've ever had.

Unfortunately for me and any other fans of this spicy sandwich, its held a very sporadic and short menu item life with Carl's. I've only ever seen it pop up on two separate occasions, the most recent being May 2013 and I haven't seen it since.

The kicker? Many foods that claim to be spicy usually aren't (granted I'm a seeker of the heat, so it takes a lot to prove your worth in the realm of spiciness). The jalapenos on this sandwich were usually generous (of the 3 or 4 of these I've ever had), nice spicy pepperjack cheese and a tasty, zesty sauce. One of my favorite attributes is the grilled chicken versus the more frequented crispy chicken- its just a nice change for once.
While this spicy beast hasn't been on the menu for a while, I'm patiently waiting for it to return.
