Chipotle Debuts New Recipe Pollo Asado, Chili Lime Chips
NEWPORT BEACH CA - For the first time, Chipotle Mexican Grill - which operates in Pottstown, Douglassville, and Royersford PA - is introducing two new limited-time menu items simultaneously.
First, the restaurant says it is bringing back its Pollo Asado with an all-new recipe. It features freshly grilled adobo chicken, seasoned with garlic, Mexican spices and hand-cut cilantro. It is then finished with bright citrus and real lime, for a savory, smoky flavor.
Pollo Asado officially returns Aug. 31 (2026; Monday).
Second, Chipotle heeded the online popularity of patrons who use packaged chips as toppings for their orders. It has a topping of its own, Chili Lime Chips, with with no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives, and a “real” ingredient list. The restaurant says the chips provide bold favor and a hearty crunch to its entrees.
Chili Lime Chips become publicly available on Sept. 4 (Friday), but earlier (Aug. 31 as well) to company rewards members.
