Hatch chili season is upon us and U.S. sushi distributor [Hissho Sushi](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spicy-sushi-roll) is celebrating with a new Crunchy Hatch Chile Chicken Sushi Roll.

Hissho Sushi recently teamed up with The [Hatch Chile Co.](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chopt-creative-salad-co) to launch the very special Crunchy Hatch Chile Chicken Roll. This supersized roll starts with grilled chicken, cream cheese, and avocado, all wrapped up in a layer of nori and rice. The whole roll is then topped with a flavorful Southwestern-style salsa made from a blend of [Hatch green chiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hatch-chile-pork-tenderloin), corn, red onion, cilantro, and crispy fried onions. The entire roll is then finished with a drizzle of spicy mayo, sriracha, and Japanese BBQ sauce for a sweet and spicy kick.

The new Crunchy Hatch Chile Chicken Roll is available from 1,000 locations nationwide, including grocery stores, airports, and hospitals.
