The dominant flavor is the fiery spice of the Zinger chicken fillet, achieved through a blend of chili peppers and other spices in the breading. This is balanced by the creamy coolness of mayonnaise and the fresh, slightly bitter taste of lettuce. The sesame seed bun adds a subtle nutty sweetness and textural contrast.
Spice Level

Pairing Suggestions
Consider pairing the Zinger with a sweet or refreshing drink to balance the spice, such as lemonade or a sweet tea. Also, sides like coleslaw can provide a cooling contrast.
Enjoy Fresh
