Jack in the Box Spices up Menu with Southwest Chicken Bowl

The new Southwest Chicken Bowl is made with fajita-seasoned chicken, rice, grilled onions and peppers, and topped with shredded cheddar cheese and a tangy cilantro lime sauce.

"Our Teriyaki Bowls have been popular alternatives to our burgers and chicken sandwiches," said Tammy Bailey, division vice president of menu marketing and promotions for Jack in the Box Inc. "With the addition of the Southwest Chicken Bowl, we're spicing up our line of rice bowls with a flavorful combination of south-of-the-border ingredients that delivers a filling meal at a great value."

Jack in the Box will offer the Southwest Chicken Bowl for the suggested price of $4.29, plus tax, at participating restaurants.
