Blazin' Chicken Sandwich - Jack In The Box

Jack's Blazin' Chicken Sandwich - 2014

Jack in the Box's newest creation hit the menu in 2014 with a spicy new twist on a crispy chicken sandwich. Jack's Blazin' Chicken features a zesty, flavorful, ghost pepper ranch sauce and pickled jalapenos for that maximum spice boost. Joining the party is a crispy fried chicken patty, American white cheese, caramelized onions, tomatoes and crisp iceberg lettuce.

Jack's Blazin' Chicken Sandwich - 2015

 This was probably one of my favorite fast food menu items in a very long time. And it must have been a hit- because it returned to the menu this year from April-May 2015. The first year, I enjoyed this sandwich so much that I returned for several more and since then have consumed at least ten of them (which is a LOT for a person who doesn't frequent fast food). I love the flavor of ghost peppers and although the sauce is somewhat mild, the addition of the pickled jalapenos helps pack the punch needed to make this sandwich pleasantly spicy. (They always added at least half a dozen jalapenos to mine!)

While enjoyable, my only complaint is that while the fried chicken patty is good, it is much greasier than it should be. All in all, I loved this sandwich and hope it makes a comeback more than once a year, every year! I always look forward to it. These ran about $4.95 at my local Jack in the Box.
