AUSTIN, TEXAS — It's a hot time in the city, and we're not talking about the weather this time. Shake Shack has officially re-launched its fan-favorite Hot Chick'n sandwich in all Texas Shacks as a limited-time menu item.

That's right, spicy food lovers: The Hot Chick'n is back and hotter than ever, giving guests the option to select their spice level: Hot or Extra Hot. For an extra kick, the more adventurous can add spice to their fries by simply asking their Shack for spicy fries or spicy cheese fries, officials wrote in a press advisory with palpable excitement.

There are two Shake Shack locations in Austin, including at The Domain and 1100 S. Lamar Blvd. So get it while it's hot!

About Hot Chick'n

The Hot Chick’n is a crispy chicken breast dusted with a guajillo and cayenne pepper blend – all topped with slaw and pickles. It’s crafted from an all-natural chicken breast—no hormones or antibiotics ever—slow-cooked in a creamy buttermilk marinade, hand-dipped into Shack-made batter, dredged through seasoned flour and crisp-fried. The sandwich is dusted with a guajillo and cayenne pepper blend and topped with Louisiana hot sauce slaw, kosher dill pickles and served on the same non-GMO potato bun as the classic ShackBurger.
