VAUGHAN, ON, June 1, 2021 /CNW/ - After serving its iconic rotisserie chicken for 67 years, the Canadian chicken experts at Swiss Chalet today announced the launch of their biggest food innovation yet - a new Chalet-style Crispy Chicken Sandwich.
"We're proud to launch this great tasting, premium quality sandwich," said Ron Simard, Chief Operating Officer at Swiss Chalet. "Our chefs intentionally took their time to craft a truly craveable, crunchy, and delicious chicken sandwich. We know Canadians will only have to taste it once, to love it forever."
Just like their famous rotisserie, the sandwich is made with only grain-fed, preservative-free chickens raised by Canadian Chicken Farmers, and made fresh to order. It also features a new tangy Chalet mayo - an innovative spin on the Signature Chalet Dipping Sauce that Canadians know and love.
In order to serve a delicious sandwich every time, Swiss Chalet has invested in new smart fryers. The new fryers feature automated filtration systems to ensure that only the freshest oil is used during cooking, and smart temperature controls to reach that perfect golden crisp. The result is a sandwich that has a satisfying crunch on the outside, and is incredibly juicy inside. Combined with a secret coleslaw recipe and the tangy Chalet mayo, the new sandwich is a menu item deemed worthy to stand beside Swiss Chalet's famous rotisserie chicken dinners.
"Our menu innovation journey doesn't stop here, there's a lot to look forward to," said Simard on the brand's long-term growth strategy. "Our chefs continually seek feedback from our Guests so that we craft delicious recipes, using new spices and flavour profiles they love. Canadians expect great tasting food from Swiss Chalet and we know that our new Chalet-style sandwich will exceed those expectations."
Swiss Chalet's new Crispy Chicken Sandwich is now available across Canada, while supplies last. Guests will also be able to enjoy an entire Crispy Chicken category at select locations, including year-round Crispy Chicken entrées and new and improved chicken wings.
