Chicken fans can enjoy an updated menu with the new Burger King chicken sandwich options. They can taste the Loaded Jalapeño and Club versions.

Starting today, Burger King is expanding its Original Chicken Sandwich lineup with two bold, limited-time innovations: the Loaded Jalapeño Original Chicken Sandwich and the Club Original Chicken Sandwich. First introduced back in 1979, the Original Chicken Sandwich (OCS) has been a fan-favorite fixture on the BK menu for decades. Its signature elongated shape, lightly breaded white meat chicken, shredded lettuce, and tangy mayonnaise on a toasted sesame seed bun have kept guests coming back for over forty years. Now, Burger King is responding to guest demand for more variety by giving the classic patty two distinct, elevated twists.

For guests who want to turn up the heat, the Loaded Jalapeño Original Chicken Sandwich layers a creamy jalapeño sauce, a double-dose of crispy and pickled jalapeños, crispy onions, fresh lettuce, tomatoes, and melted American cheese onto the signature long chicken patty. Of course, if you prefer something savory and elevated, the Club Original Chicken Sandwich brings a familiar comfort food combination to the menu. It stacks crispy bacon, melted Swiss cheese, fresh lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and creamy mayonnaise on the iconic sesame seed bun.

“The Original Chicken Sandwich is a true Burger King icon that’s been loved for its signature seasoning, taste, and unmistakable shape since 1979,” said Joel Yashinsky, chief marketing officer, Burger King US&C. “Through our ongoing Guest listening initiative, we heard just how passionate fans are about this sandwich, and how excited they are for new twists on it. The Loaded Jalapeño and Club flavors are our way of celebrating that love while adding something new to the lineup.”
