Chipotle responds to overwhelming fan-demand by welcoming back one if most popular protein options – Carne Asada – for the third time since it was first introduced back in September 2019.
Chipotle’s Carne Asada is marinated and then seasoned on the grill with a perfect blend of signature spices, such as oregano, coriander, and cumin, and finished with freshly squeezed lime and chopped cilantro. The returning fan-favorite protein is compliant with both the Keto and Paleo diets and has also been officially approved for the Whole30 program.
New Carne Asada Quesadilla
Chipotle is also giving fans the chance to experience, for the first time, their favorite protein in a customizable quesadilla with melty Monterey Jack cheese, optional fajita veggies, and three sides. Chipotle’s Head Chef Nevielle Panthaky suggests pairing the Carne Asada Quesadilla with sides of cilantro lime white rice, black beans, and sour cream for dipping.
Just be aware that quesadillas can only be ordered through the Chipotle app, Chipotle.com, and third-party delivery partners like DoorDash and Uber Eats.
Prices may vary, but the new quesadilla starts at $12 at my nearest Chipotle.
You can find Carne Asada, along with the Carne Asada Quesadilla, at participating Chipotle locations across the US and Canada for a limited time starting September 13, 2023.
