Birmingham Restaurant Week 2016: Cowboy Chicken

If you haven’t tried Cowboy Chicken yet, you are missing out on a quality fast-casual restaurant. It’s located next to the Mellow Mushroom in Inverness Corners and features never-frozen rotisserie chicken that is hormone and antibiotic free. They also use locally sourced fruit and vegetables.

Cowboy Chicken has both $5 and $10 #BRW2016 options to choose from. Here is what we tried at lunch:

$5 option:

We ordered the Chicken Enchiladas - two enchiladas stuffed with rotisserie chicken and smothered in a green sauce that is so delicious! The corn tortillas were fresh and not dry like some enchiladas we have had in the past. The sauce covers the entire plate, so if you order anything else it is great for dipping!

$10 Option (Includes 1 side):

After going over our options we went with the Blue Ribbon Chicken Salad. It’s a Chicken Salad Sandwich on grain bread with lettuce and tomato. It tasted great and we even added some hot sauce (from a cute tiny coke bottle) to spice up the sandwich! For the side we ordered a tangy cucumber tomato salad made with fresh veggies. The sandwich may have even made a detour into the enchilada sauce. :-)

Dessert:

The featured dessert is a Peach Cobbler that is out of this world! Warm, sweet, and with a nice cobbler crunch - we could have eaten a gallon of this stuff! The peaches are locally sourced and tasted amazing! As of right now, this is one of our favorite desserts in all of Birmingham! For the quality and price point, Cowboy Chicken is a must try both during and after Restaurant Week! Head on over and don’t forget to order dessert!!!

Don't forget that Cowboy Chicken is also listed as a donating merchant on Planet Fundraiser! Cowboy Chicken will donate 7% of your ticket to a charity of your choice. Check out more details here!
