Chick-fil-A is rolling out a new menu item today — the Spicy Southwest Salad.

The Atlanta giant said the salad — which includes spicy grilled chicken, zesty roasted corn and black beans served with shredded red cabbage and carrots, grape tomatoes — is a reboot of the popular Southwest Chargrilled Salad.

Joining the salad today in its debut is Frosted Coffee.

Two brand new dressings will also be available to pair with the new salad: Creamy Salsa Dressing and Chili Lime Vinaigrette. The salad contains just 260 calories before extra toppings or dressing.

“Our customers asked us for healthy options and bold flavors, so we’re excited to add the Spicy Southwest Salad to the menu,” said Jon Bridges, chief marketing officer of Chick-fil-A. “This new salad is packed with high-quality ingredients and fresh produce with a spicy kick. It’s not like anything else on the Chick-fil-A menu, and we think guests are going to love it.”

The Spicy Southwest Salad will replace Chick-fil-A’s Asian Salad, the company said.
