It seems that Johnny Rockets is entering into the chicken sandwich wars with its new Honey Mustard Chicken Sandwich. Part of the brand's 2019 fall lineup, the new sandwich puts a sweet and salty twist on fried chicken.
Johnny Rockets' new Honey Mustard Chicken Sandwich starts with your choice of a grilled or crispy chicken breast. The chicken fillet is then topped with melted cheddar cheese, applewood-smoked bacon, tomato, lettuce, and honey mustard sauce on a warm Bavarian Pretzel Bun. The pretzel bun is part of a larger, pretzel-forward fall lineup, which also includes the new Honey Mustard Pretzel Burger, Pretzel Bites, and even a Caramel Pretzel Shake finished with pretzel stick and pretzel crumbles.
