In an effort to cater to the growing demand for more healthy options at fast food restaurants, Wendy's is now offering a Grilled Chicken Sandwich. Unlike the breaded and deep-fried fillets that can amount to hundreds of calories per serving, this grilled sandwich serves as a better-for-you option.
The new Grilled Chicken Sandwich from Wendy's consists of an all-white meat chicken breast that has been marinated in a blend of herbs for added flavor. The chicken is then topped with fresh-cut tomato, spring mix and a smokey honey mustard sauce. The entire sandwich is served on a toasted, multigrain bun for an added nutritional boost.
While the sandwich still clocks in at 360 calories, the grilled chicken patty makes the sandwich a significantly lighter option than many of the deep-fried alternatives served at other fast food chains.
