Chicken al Pastor Returns to Chipotle

Have you been dreaming of Chicken a Pastor ever since it left the Chipotle menu last year? If so, you're not alone. Fans on social media have been begging the restaurant to bring it back for months. And now, we can finally taste it again. This delicious, fresh chicken is made with "seared morita peppers and ground achiote, balanced with a splash of pineapple finished with fresh lime, and hand-chopped cilantro," Chipotle wrote in a press release.

And if you're looking for inspiration for your next Chipotle order, you might want to follow in the footsteps of fellow Chicken al Pastor lovers. The restaurant revealed that the most ordered Chicken al Pastor bowl contains white rice, black beans, fresh tomato salsa, roasted chili-corn salsa, cheese and guacamole. Yum! Why not try it out for yourself?

If you needed any more convincing, I'm here to say that I tried a Chicken al Pastor bowl for myself and I can confirm that it's delicious. It offers the perfect bit of sweetness. I couldn't get enough.

There's even more of a reason to try this order when you consider the fact that Chipotle is offering free deliver on all Chicken al Pastor orders placed via the Chipotle app and online—but today is the last day to take advantage of this offer, so act fast!
