Cowboy Chicken is kicking off 2025 with the debut of a new Bolero Bowl and several returning bowl options.

Designed for consumers who want to refresh their eating habits in 2025, the new Bolero Bowls offer a balanced serving of rice, meat, and vegetables, all in the form of a handy and convenient bowl. The latest addition to the Bolero Bowl lineup is the new Chicken Tinga Bowl, which starts with a bed of flavorful cilantro lime rice dusted with Cowboy Chicken’s signature Cowboy Dust, all topped with spicy chicken tinga, corn relish, black beans, Monterey Jack cheese, tortilla chips, Mexican crema, avocado slices, and fresh jalapeños. This new bowl will also be joined by the returning Campfire Bowl, which features cilantro lime rice, rotisserie chicken, charred corn, roasted tomatoes, onions, cotija cheese, and a creamy avocado sauce. Both of these bowls will join the existing Durango Bowl, which is made with Cowboy Chicken's signature rotisserie chicken.
