El Pollo Loco celebrates the 2018 holiday season with the return of handmade Chicken Tamales.

Chicken Tamales are available in three combinations, including:

Chicken Tamale, Taco Al Carbon and Side: Chicken tamale, chicken taco al carbon and choice of a small side.

Chicken Tamales with a Side: Two chicken tamales and your choice of a small side.

Chicken Tamale and Tortilla Soup: Chicken tamale and a small chicken tortilla soup.

El Pollo Loco’s Chicken Tamales are made with authentic corn masa, filled with spiced chicken simmered in a Colorado chile sauce infused with Mexican herbs and spices, hand-wrapped in cornhusks, and then cooked.

Chicken Tamales can be found at participating El Pollo Loco locations through the holiday season.
