White Castle Debuts Brand New Chicken Fajita Slider and Jalapeño Cravioli Side

The limited-time Slider and new side dish arrive April 6 with craveable Southwest-inspired flavor

COLUMBUS, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--White Castle, the family-owned Slider pioneer, is bringing a little Southwest sizzle to the Castle in the form of a brand-new Slider: the Chicken Fajita Slider.

Available for a limited time beginning April 6, the Chicken Fajita Slider invites Cravers to spice up their spring in a whole new way. This bold, flavor-packed creation features crispy, all-white meat chicken topped with grilled onions and peppers, jalapeño cheese and zesty green chili aioli. It’s a Southwest-inspired twist designed to deliver maximum Crave in every bite.

“We’re always looking for new ways to surprise and delight our Cravers,” said Jamie Richardson, chief marketing officer at White Castle. “The Chicken Fajita Slider brings bold flavor to our iconic Slider lineup while staying true to what we do best: delivering hot, tasty and affordable food that keeps people coming back for more.”

White Castle market tested the Chicken Fajita Slider in Indianapolis in 2021. While customers loved the Slider, a post-COVID ingredient shortage put the systemwide rollout on the back burner. A consumer survey in the fall of 2025, however, confirmed that it was time to introduce the Chicken Fajita Slider as a limited-time menu item in all of its markets.

The Chicken Fajita Slider, available at participating White Castles through June 14 or while supplies last, costs between $2.59 and $2.99, depending on the region.

White Castle also introduces brand-new Jalapeño Cravioli

In addition to the Chicken Fajita Slider, White Castle is introducing another brand-new, limited-time-only menu item — Jalapeño Cravioli. This tasty side dish is made from diced jalapeño peppers and cream cheese stuffed inside crispy, seasoned cornmeal breading and served with green chili aioli dipping sauce. It runs $1.99 for a small serving (five pieces) and $4.99 for a sack (14 pieces) and is available April 6 through June 14 (or while supplies last).
