Melty Mozzarella Sandwiches

Wendy's New Italian Mozzarella Chicken Sandwich is a Cheesy Creation

— November 27, 2022 — Lifestyle
Wendy's is leaning into comfort food this winter with the launch of its new Italian Mozzarella Chicken Sandwich, Italian Mozzarella Cheeseburger, and Garlic Fries.

Delivering all the delicious flavors of a homemade Italian dinner in one tasty sandwich, the new Italian Mozzarella Chicken Sandwich will feel perfectly familiar. The new dish starts with a lightly breaded crispy chicken breast topped with some fried mozzarella cheese, savory marinara sauce, and some rich Asiago cheese. The whole sandwich is then brought together with a toasted golden garlic knot bun. Best of all, the sandwich can be customized with your choice of Classic, Grilled, or Spicy filet. As John Li, Vice President of Culinary Innovation for Wendy's explains, "The Italian Mozzarella Sandwiches are forged from the same delicious inspiration and innovation, giving fans an adventurous flavor experience with every bite."
