Toasted Frontega Chicken®: The Full Breakdown

The Toasted Frontega Chicken® is Panera’s ultimate fan-favorite. It’s built on our artisan Black Pepper Focaccia, which toasts to a perfect golden crunch while staying soft on the inside.

We load it up with smoked pulled chicken and fresh, whole-milk mozzarella that melts beautifully when pressed. Fresh basil, crisp red onions, and vine-ripened tomatoes add the perfect garden crunch. Finally, a generous spread of our signature chipotle sauce ties it all together with a smoky, creamy kick. It’s hearty, perfectly balanced, and hits the spot every single time.

Price Notice: We independently track Panera Bread prices. Costs may vary by location. Check your local cafe for current pricing.

Pro Tip: Order through the Panera app to customize the Toasted Frontega Chicken® before you arrive. Rapid Pick-Up means no wait in line. If you are a MyPanera rewards member, this item earns points toward free bakery items.

A Panera classic for a reason. The focaccia is always perfectly toasted and the chipotle sauce is just the right amount of spicy.
