Inspired by classic Cajun spices and flavors, the two new offerings feature a flavorful combination of chicken and veggies. More specifically the new sandwich is made with tender chicken, provolone cheese, a spicy Creole chili pepper sauce, Jimmy Peppers (aka hot peppers), onions, lettuce, mayo, oil, vinegar, and crispy jalapeños, all served on a fresh French bread sub. If you prefer something slightly more portable, you can also enjoy all the same flavorful ingredients stuffed into a garlic and herb wrap. Both the new Kickin' Cajun Chicken Sandwich and Wrap are available now from participating [Jimmy John's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spicy-cajun-chicken-wrap) locations for less than $12 (though prices may vary by location).
