## Story

Starbird is introducing its newest culinary chapter: a limited-time Chimichurri lineup inspired by Argentina’s iconic herb-forward sauce.

Bringing together fresh herbs and bold flavors with roasted garlic and subtle heat, the Chimichurri menu creates craveable depth in every bite.

The limited-time menu – available March 24 through early summer – includes:

- Chimi Chop Salad ($13.77): Crispy chicken, romaine-cabbage blend, arugula, chimichurri-marinated white beans, marinated charred red peppers, pickled red onion, pepita pepper shake, chopped parsley, roasted garlic aioli drizzle, and chimichurri

- Chimichurri Star ($10.97): Crispy chicken, roasted garlic aioli, chimichurri, marinated charred red peppers, pepita pepper shake, arugula, on a soft brioche bun

- Chimichurri Wings (Starting at $11.97): Chicken wings tossed with roasted garlic aioli, pepita pepper shake, and chopped parsley, served with chimichurri

- Chimi Fries ($7.47): Seasoned fries with chimichurri and roasted garlic aioli drizzle, pepita pepper shake, grated parmesan, and chopped parsley, served with roasted garlic aioli

“At Starbird, we see crispy chicken as a canvas for global flavor exploration,” said founder Aaron Noveshen.“We’re constantly drawing inspiration from international culinary trends to introduce bold, vibrant flavors to our menu. Chimichurri delivers brightness, freshness and just the right kick — and it transforms everything from salads to sandwiches into something unexpected.”

To round out the experience, Starbird is also introducing two house-made seasonal beverages: Guava Iced Tea and Strawberry Lemonade, offering tropical sweetness and refreshing citrus to complement the savory items.

The Chimichurri menu is the latest expression of Starbird’s globally inspired, limited-time flavors. Recent offerings have included the Indian Hotbird, featuring warm, aromatic spices, and the Japanese BBQ Starbird, inspired by the sweet and savory depth of Japanese barbecue. Each new release reflects the brand’s commitment to incorporating bold international influences across its chef-driven menu while delivering the craveable, high-quality chicken guests know and love.
