Tortilla has introduced a new sweet and fiery addition to its California-style Mexican menu. The new Hot Damn Chicken combines Tortilla’s Asado Chicken with a Hot Damn Glaze created with award-winning Leeds-based hot sauce brand Thiccc Sauce. The chicken delivers a triple hit of ghost chilli and can be added to burritos, bowls, and other Tortilla builds.
Return of Ghost Chilli Ranch
Joining Hot Damn Chicken is the return of Tortilla’s Ghost Chilli Ranch, also created in collaboration with Thiccc Sauce. The house-made ranch is combined with Thiccc Sauce Hot Damn Triple Ghost Chilli Hot Sauce, featuring Trinidad Scorpion Moruga, Yellow Naga Bhut Jolokia, and Carolina Reaper.
For those who want to try both, Tortilla has created the new DAMN, THAT’S HOT! Burrito and Bowl, which brings the Hot Damn Chicken and Ghost Chilli Ranch together. Available in Medium or Large, the DAMN, THAT’S HOT! Burrito combines coriander rice, black beans, Hot Damn Chicken, Monterey Jack cheese, Ghost Chilli Ranch, lettuce, pico de gallo, pickled onions, and jalapeños.
Build your own options and drink pairing
Customers can also choose Hot Damn Chicken and Ghost Chilli Ranch individually as part of their usual ‘build your own’ Tortilla. Tortilla has also partnered with Dalston’s to pair the DAMN, THAT’S HOT! Burrito or Bowl with Dalston’s Lemon Soda.
James Garland, Food Director at Tortilla, said: “The Ghost Chilli Ranch returns and this time, its not coming alone. Introducing the all-new Hot Damn Chicken. Two hits of heat. One unmistakable flavour. For those brave enough to handle both. We know this is the one you’ve all been waiting for and we’ve made it even hotter. Two fiery additions for the autumn season, because one was never going to be enough. Enjoy the heat.”
Collaboration with Thiccc Sauce
Hot Damn Chicken is the latest creation from Tortilla’s collaboration with Thiccc Sauce, the independent hot sauce brand founded by Luca Rollini in 2020. The new items are available for the autumn season, offering customers a choice of heat levels in their meals.
