Tortilla has teamed up with Sauce Shop to create a new limited edition dish that is sure to go down a treat

Mexican restaurant chain, Tortilla, has announced an exciting new partnership. The beloved UK brand has teamed up with flavour legends Sauce Shop to introduce Buffalo Hot Chicken, a mouth-watering limited-time menu addition.

Central to this new offer is Tortilla’s signature oven-roasted chicken, smothered in Sauce Shop’s award-winning Buffalo Hot Sauce.

The sauce features Sauce Shop’s distinctive fermented jalapeños and provides a ‘punchy balance of heat, tang and depth’ that secured them a 3-star Great Taste Award and made it their top-selling product.

To enhance the buffalo experience, two brand-new toppings are being added to the menu. They include tangy, crunchy pickled celery, and creamy avocado ranch made with lime, coriander and jalapeños, giving the classic buffalo flavour a Tortilla touch.

James Garland, Director of Food at Tortilla, said: “We’re really excited to be teaming up with Sauce Shop on this launch.

“Their Buffalo Hot has landed a 3-star Great Taste Award, and for good reason – it’s bold, fiery and seriously tasty.

“Pairing it with crunchy pickled celery and our smooth avocado ranch gives that classic buffalo, celery and ranch combo a Tortilla twist – big flavour, fresh ingredients and sure to be a crowd pleaser.”

Sauce Shop, which was established in a Nottingham home kitchen in 2014, now has a team of 50 producing hundreds of thousands of bottles each week. Their products are eveb available in Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, Asda, Waitrose and online.

Speaking about the collaboration, Al Porter, Sauce Shop Marketing Director, said: “We’re thrilled to see our Buffalo Hot Sauce bringing the heat at Tortilla. This is what great partnerships taste like.”

More than 70% of Tortilla’s menu is plant-based and Vegan Friendly, with every meal being fully customisable. This means the new Buffalo Hot Chicken can be enjoyed in any way that suits.

The Buffalo Hot Chicken upgrade is on offer across Tortilla restaurants nationwide, excluding certain university sites, travel hubs and delivery-only kitchens.

Customers can also enjoy it as part of Tortilla’s high-protein pots for £6, making it a great option for a post-gym refuel.

The new addition is available for dine-in, takeaway, through Uber Eats, or via Order Ahead on the Tortilla app.

Burrito Society members will receive a free upgrade during launch week when ordering through the app.
