Taco Bell continues to evolve its menu due to its focus on adding seasonal and new menu items. Sometimes, these can be new additions, while in other cases, the fast-food chain relaunches discontinued dishes. Both infusions happened recently, with a lost favorite returning to Taco Bell’s menu alongside fresh items.
Highlights
- Taco Bell has reintroduced its 2018-launched Nacho Fries for a limited period.
- The fast-food chain has brought up two new fried chicken items – the Crispy Chicken Taco and the Crispy Chicken Burrito – as well.
- Crispy Chicken might get a permanent place on Taco Bell’s menu by 2026.
Taco Bell Brings Back A Discontinued Favorite
The popular fast food giant has kept going through the years with its strategy of bringing back old items after a gap. Continuing the trend, Taco Bell has reintroduced Nacho Fries for a limited time this summer.
Nacho Fries
The beloved eating establishment gained popularity for a limited-time menu item – Nacho Fries – in 2018. While the dish was crispy and hot like regular fries, Taco Bell’s Mexican spices added a new taste to it.
However, to the fans’ surprise, the fast food brand discontinued the fries and brought them back only for seasonal periods. However, this time, it has made the fries extra loaded.
Taco Bell has incorporated Nacho Fries into a new limited-time offering: Loaded Steak & Jalapeño Topped Fries. The dish features the returning fries topped with nacho cheese sauce, pickled jalapeños, creamy jalapeño sauce, and grilled marinated steak. However, this addition will be available at Taco Bell only for a limited time.
New Fried Chicken Delicacies
After its recently launched Crispy Chicken Nuggets, the fast-food giant is introducing two additional chicken-based items.
Its Crispy Chicken Taco will be loaded with crispy chicken, crisp lettuce, Pico de Gallo, shredded cheddar cheese, and purple cabbage. All of the items will be folded inside a warm tortilla. Taco Bell will be offering options for a creamy Avocado Ranch sauce and spicy Ranchero with the dish.
Taco Bell’s second fried chicken item is the Crispy Chicken Burrito, which will include crispy chicken, crisp lettuce, Pico de Gallo, shredded cheddar cheese, and purple cabbage. All of the items will be wrapped in a grilled flour tortilla. The sauce options will be the same – Avocado Ranch sauce and spicy Ranchero.
However, both the newly introduced fried chicken delicacies will be available for Taco Bell’s fans for a limited period. While the new additions will be offered at only some of its outlets for now, Crispy Chicken might get a permanent place on the menu by 2026.
