"This time around, the Irvine-based fast food giant is partnering with Frank's RedHot, a hot sauce brand that dates from 1920 and takes credit for being used in the first Buffalo hot wings recipe. Taco Bell describes the new Frank's RedHot Diablo Sauce as a mashup of Frank's original Buffalo flavor, its own Diablo sauce and spicy ranch dressing. The sauce will be included in four limited-time items at participating locations, according to a news release."
"Frank's RedHot Diablo Crispy Chicken Burrito is served in a flour tortilla with lettuce, purple cabbage, pico de gallo and cheddar cheese for about $5.49. Taco Bell prices vary by location. Frank's RedHot Diablo Crispy Chicken Soft Taco comes in a soft flour tortilla for $2.99. Frank's RedHot Diablo Chicken Nacho Fries features slow-roasted chicken and nacho cheese sauce for $4.99. Crispy Chicken Strips with Spicy Ranch costs $6.99. The sauce can be upgraded to Frank's RedHot Diablo."
"Taco Bell has been flirting with crispy chicken strips and nuggets throughout 2025 as it faces a looming goal to make crispy chicken a permanent part of its menu in 2026. Slow-roasted chicken is currently featured in tacos, burritos and quesadillas on the chain's Cantina Chicken Menu."
Taco Bell will reintroduce crispy chicken strips on Thursday, Oct. 16, paired with a new Frank's RedHot Diablo Sauce that blends Frank's original Buffalo flavor, Taco Bell's Diablo sauce and spicy ranch dressing. The Diablo sauce will be offered across four limited-time items at participating locations: a Crispy Chicken Burrito (about $5.49), a Crispy Chicken Soft Taco ($2.99), Frank's RedHot Diablo Chicken Nacho Fries ($4.99) and Crispy Chicken Strips with Spicy Ranch ($6.99) that can be upgraded to the Frank's sauce. Taco Bell has been testing crispy chicken throughout 2025 while aiming to make it a permanent menu option in 2026, and slow-roasted chicken remains on the Cantina Chicken Menu. Recent limited-time returns included a July Sweet Chipotle BBQ offering and the Decades Y2K items, subject to availability.
