"When we were thinking of what flavor would be perfect for our next Chicken Sandwich, the answer was right in front of us," Popeyes culinary innovation vice president Amy Alarcon said in a statement . "When we launched our wings platform, we used our Ghost Pepper flavor as the base for all of our wings. Marinated in a dry spice blend before they're hand breaded and fried to a perfect crunch, our wings are the perfect balance of flavor and fire. We knew this flavor profile was already a fan favorite and crowd pleaser, so why not take it and turn it into a sandwich?"
