Here’s Exactly What Taco Bell’s New Naked Chicken Chalupa Looks Like IRL

Taco Bell’s new Naked Chicken Chalupa is set to launch January 26 and we’re all itching to get our hands on one. That’s still an awfully long time for us to wait for fast food. Though, we see the light at the end of the fried chicken tunnel.

A group of Instagram’s most prominent food influencers were lucky enough to get an early preview of the new menu item and try it for themselves. As you can see from the video, the Chalupa was met with some pretty positive reactions and even more stunning photographs.

Here’s an exclusive look at Taco Bell’s upcoming Naked Chicken Chalupa in real life.


The new item is made with a fried chicken shell.

It’s filled with lettuce, tomatoes, cheese…

…and AVOCADO RANCH sauce.

Here’s some #FoodbeastFamily enjoying the Naked Chicken Chalupas.

Some were even able to capture the magic of Taco Bell HQ.

The new item debuts Thursday, Jan. 26

Would y’all try this? 🤔P.S. The Taco Bell Headquarters is pretty sweet if you have some free time and you love The Bell!
