The new sandwich will only be available for a limited time

There is yet another chicken sandwich on the market.

Earlier this week, Whataburger announced it has added a spicy chicken sandwich to its menu.

The sandwich is made with a “perfectly marinated, crispy chicken filet,” lettuce, tomatoes, pickles and mayo on a toasted bun, according to the announcement from the Texas-based fast food chain.

However, the new sandwich will only be available for a limited time.

Last year, spicy chicken sandwiches became incredibly popular after Popeyes released one -- and for a while, the sandwich even sold out.

People compared the sandwich to others from fast food restaurants including Chick-fil-A and Wendy’s.

Last month, Sam’s Club even got in on the game, releasing its own spicy chicken sandwich that has been deemed similar to Chick-fil-A’s.
