El Pollo Loco is testing a “swicy” new item called Mango Habanero Chicken at eight locations in Los Angeles and Orange counties.
The Costa Mesa-based chain describes it as fire-grilled chicken coated with our new sweet and spicy sauce. It is being served in individual and family meals.
“Swicy” is a trendy way to describe sweet and hot flavors.
Mango Habanero Chicken is available for a limited time, but sales will help determine whether it becomes a permanent menu item, according to a news release.
The test is going on at a restaurant in Lynwood at 11118 Long Beach Blvd.
In Orange County, there are three restaurants in Santa Ana: 101 South Harbor Blvd., 2501 South Bristol St. and 1702 E. 17th St.
There are two in Anaheim: 1201 S. Beach Blvd. and 969 S. Euclid Ave.
The other two are at 5251 Beach Blvd., Buena Park, and 22381 Antonio Parkway, Rancho Santa Margarita.
