After a successful test in select markets last year, Chipotle announced today the launch of its new Chipotle Honey Chicken, available at participating locations across the U.S., Canada, and Europe starting March 7, 2025. Chipotle Rewards members, however, can enjoy an exclusive first taste of the chain’s newest menu item beginning today, March 6, through the app or on Chipotle.com and Chipotle.ca.
Chipotle Honey Chicken features hot, freshly grilled chicken seasoned with bold, savory Mexican spices in a marinade of seared, smoked chipotle peppers and a dash of pure honey to elevate the flavor profile of any entrée option on the menu.
Before launching the limited-time test in select markets in 2024, Chipotle conducted a series of consumer taste tests during the development process, where its combination of spicy and sweet flavors exceeded expectations and earned the highest ratings of any chicken innovation in the brand’s history.
According to Chipotle, hot honey is one of the top trending flavors this year, as highlighted in the National Restaurant Association’s ‘What’s Hot 2025 Culinary Forecast.’ Chipotle Honey Chicken surpassed testing goals in Nashville, Tennessee, and Sacramento, California, becoming a customer favorite for its balanced taste and use of real ingredients.
Remember, starting March 7, 2024, Chipotle Honey Chicken will be available for a limited time at participating locations across the U.S., Canada, France, and the U.K.
