Phoenix, get ready for some new spicy Chick-fil-A menu times. Last year, Chick-fil-A started testing their new Spicy Chick-n-Strips. Now, the eatery is expanding that test with a totally new menu item, called the Spicy Chick-n-Strips Biscuit. The new item still features the spicy strips, but this time they come on a fresh-baked buttermilk biscuit. The Spicy Chick-n-Strips Biscuit is currently being tested in Phoenix, Yuma, and Tucson-area locations.

Chick-fil-A is also testing a Grilled Spicy Chicken Deluxe Sandwich in Phoenix. The sandwich features a grilled chicken breast marinated in a spicy seasoning and served with Colby Jack cheese and new Cilantro Lime Sauce, and it was previously tested in Orlando, St. Louis and Knoxville.

And lastly, Phoenix residents will be able to enjoy the Grilled Spicy Deluxe Bundle. It's a build-your-own spicy grilled chicken catering package, and as Brand Eating reports, that has enough ingredients to feed ten people.

Nearly a year ago, residents of Philadelphia, Central Texas and South Texas were the first to try Chick-fil-A's Spicy Chick-n-Strips. Now, Phoenix, AZ is getting in on the fun, with a new test run starting August 25. The original three test locations can still order the strips, too.

The fiery strips are available in 3- and 4-piece packs, and are served with your fave dipping sauce. This test will determine whether or not they come to menus nationwide, so for the love of god Phoenix, GO EAT CHICKEN!

"We've heard from our customers how much they love our current spicy menu offerings, so we're really excited to give them even more spicy flavor options to enjoy," said Kanika Patrick, manager of menu development at Chick-fil-A. "We hope our guests in the test cities will try the new Spicy Chick-n-Strips and Grilled Spicy Deluxe Chicken Sandwich and let us know what they think – their feedback will help us determine whether or not we will roll out the new entrees nationwide in the future."

The Spicy Chick-n-Strips are like the original version kicked up a notch with a spicy blend of peppers, while the Grilled Spicy Chicken Deluxe Sandwich is made with a grilled chicken breast marinated in a spicy seasoning and served with a new Cilantro Lime Sauce.

Since a larger roll-out of these spicy chicken items depends on their success in the test cities, if you live in those cities, please do your duty so the rest of us can try these delicious-sounding meals one day.
