Fast food giant Arby's is officially giving a poultry spin to a regional classic as the weather cools down. This week, the sandwich chain announced the nationwide rollout of a brand-new Chicken Cheesesteak lineup. Following the massive success of the Angus Cheesesteak introduced over the summer, Arby's is bringing the same beloved flavor profile to a new protein. Available for a limited time at participating restaurants across the United States, the launch features three distinct sandwich variations crafted to satisfy classic comfort food cravings.
Inside The Three New Arbys Chicken Cheesesteaks
To ensure a juicy and tender bite, Arby's prepares the meat by marinating chicken in a savory spice blend of garlic, onion, and paprika. The chicken is then seared, sliced, and cooked sous-vide before hitting the bun. The limited-time menu includes:
- Classic Chicken Cheesesteak: Features the seasoned sous-vide chicken topped with melted American Cooper cheese and caramelized onions, all served on a toasted sesame roll.
- Chicken Deluxe Cheesesteak: Takes the classic build and adds crisp shredded lettuce and fresh sliced tomatoes for a refreshing crunch.
- Spicy Chicken Cheesesteak: Enhances the savory base sandwich by drenching the chicken and onions in a fiery spicy glaze for an extra kick of heat.
The use of American Cooper cheese is a notable culinary highlight, as it remains a highly preferred melting cheese among traditional Philly cheesesteak aficionados.
A Limited Time Release With Permanent Potential
While the trio of sandwiches is currently designated as a limited-time offering, fans of the brand know that popularity can quickly dictate permanent menu changes. The beef-based Angus Cheesesteak originally debuted as a temporary item earlier this year before overwhelming positive reception secured its long-term spot on the menu. Customers can order the new chicken alternatives in-store, at the drive-thru, or via the Arby's mobile app.
