Following the success of its fan-favorite El Diablo Burger, Carl's Jr. is introducing the new El Diablo Hand-Breaded Chicken Tender Wrap and El Diablo Loaded Fries. Plus, the brand is bringing the El Diablo Burger back as a permanent menu item, instead of just a limited-time offering.
The new El Diablo Hand-Breaded Chicken Tender Wrap features a premium all-white meat chicken tender that's been hand-dipped in buttermilk, lightly breaded, and fried to a golden brown. This tender is then paired with lettuce, shredded cheese, and a fiery habanero sauce. On the other hand, the new El Diablo Loaded Fries consists of the brand's classic natural-cut fries all topped with fiery habanero sauce, shredded cheese, and spicy jalapeño coins.
