【The Daily Meal】We Tried Chili’s New Crispy Chicken Sandwich And Can’t Wait To Have It Again

emphasis

意味　[U] ＜…の＞ 重点, 重視 (stress) ＜on, upon＞

In the last couple of years, Chili’s has placed great emphasis on quality food at excellent value. This point was well conveyed to me when I visited Chili’s Dallas headquarters recently, meeting with its President, Kevin Hochman, Chief Marketing Officer, George Felix, and Director of Culinary operations, Brian Paquette. Team Chili’s believes strongly in its core four menu items — burgers, fajitas, margaritas, and Chicken Crispers — and is always looking for ways to raise them all to new heights without emptying its customers’ wallets, sometimes with a little celebrity help. In 2024, Chili’s is hoping to make a tender moment by revamping its chicken sandwich with a new item joining the menu, namely the Crispy Chicken Sandwich. In a statement provided to Daily Meal, Brian Paquette said, “We know our fans love our hand-battered, all-white meat Chicken Crispers, so we turned that flavor profile into the best chicken sandwich in town with the new Crispy Chicken Sandwich.”

bottomless

意味　(比喩的に) 際限 [終わり] のない, 底知れない; 尽きることのない; いくらでも消費する.

With a bottomless supply of excellent chicken sandwiches available at every casual, fast casual, and fast food joint across America, how does Chili’s new entry into the genre stack up? Is the Crispy Chicken Sandwich a game-changer or a false start? I was treated to an early sneak-eat of it during my visit, and ready to talk cheep. The following chew and review is based on flavor, uniqueness, value, and overall lovability.

dwarf

意味　〈物· 事· 人が〉（相対的に）〈物· 事· 人〉を小さく [つまらなく] 見せる, 小さくする

While the generous pile of seasoned fries in the food basket almost dwarfs the burger that sits next to it, do not underestimate the size of the Crispy Chicken Sandwich. It is sneaky big. Under the bright lights, the brownish-orange brioche bun has a buttery sheen that invitingly twinkles. The interior, whiter parts of the bun have a bit of visibly toastiness to them, like one might see in a pair of Texas toast slices. Underneath creeps a flaky fried chicken filet, which gives cover to slices of pickles, and what appears to be a deluge of mayo swirls.

ポテトもバーガーもあっちはでかいよなぁ…そら皆おっきくなるよなぁ。

butter

意味　〈パン· トーストなど〉にバターを塗る; …をバターで味付けする

The Crispy Chicken Sandwich consists of a hand-battered and fried chicken filet, which is topped with mayo and pickles, all sandwiched between a buttered, and lightly toasted brioche bun.

gamut

意味　[通例 the ～] 全域, すべての範囲; すべての物

Starting on April 29, the Crispy Chicken Sandwich and the Big Smasher Burger are being added as permanent items to participating nationwide Chili’s menus. The sandwich can be ordered a la carte with a side of fries, or as a part of Chili’s 3 For Me deal. The latter includes an all-you-can-drink, non-alcoholic beverage, and a choice of a side picked from the full gamut from french fries to broccoli, corn to Mexican rice. The sandwich itself is also completely customizable. Condiments and toppings can be removed, and other options added. Some items may have additional costs.
