New Entrées to Savor This Summer
Applebee’s new menu additions bring vibrant flavors and satisfying textures that reflect the spirit of the season:
- NEW Chicken Parmesan Fettuccine – This Italian-inspired entrée features a hand-breaded, crispy chicken breast filet, smothered in a rich marinara sauce and sprinkled with freshly grated Parmesan cheese. It rests atop a bed of creamy fettuccine pasta tossed in a decadent Parmesan cream sauce. The dish is served with a signature golden-brown breadstick brushed with buttery garlic and sprinkled with parsley—perfect for soaking up every last bit of sauce.
- NEW BIG Bangin’ Burger – A bold take on the backyard classic, this burger boasts a juicy all-beef patty topped with not one, but two slices of melted American cheese. It’s drizzled with Applebee’s brand-new sweet and spicy secret sauce, featuring jalapeños and bacon for a flavorful kick. Accompanied by crisp lettuce, fresh tomato, sliced onion, and pickles, this burger is stacked high on a soft Brioche bun that balances sweetness and richness in every bite.
- Oriental Chicken Salad – A long-time favorite among Applebee’s fans, this hearty salad includes crispy breaded chicken tenders served atop a bed of fresh Asian greens. Crunchy noodles and toasted almonds add texture, while Applebee’s signature Oriental vinaigrette ties it all together with sweet and savory flavor.
Appetizers to Pair and Share
The 2 for $25 deal doesn’t stop at the entrées. Guests can complete their meal with one of Applebee’s crave-worthy appetizers or opt for two fresh side salads. Available appetizer options include:
