MINNEAPOLIS, July 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Leeann Chin, the Minnesota-founded quick-casual restaurant brand and the largest regional quick-service Asian food brand in the Midwest, is launching its newest menu item today: Honey Mango Chili Chicken. Tender, crispy chicken pieces and juicy mango tossed in a vibrant mango sauce with a kick of chili paste and red pepper flakes. Bold, seasonal, and timed to land on National Mango Day.
Leeann Chin has been a staple of the Upper Midwest dining scene for over 45 years, with more than 30 locations in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area and additional restaurants in North Dakota, Wisconsin, and select airport locations across the U.S. The brand is widely credited with inventing the Cream Cheese Puff, now a Chinese-American staple, and continues to build on a legacy of beloved classics and thoughtful menu innovation.
"Forty-five years in and we are still innovating," said Liz Grzechowiak, Executive Vice President of Leeann Chin. "Honey Mango Chili Chicken is so craveable, bright with flavors, and a fun way for us to celebrate National Mango Day with our guests. It is exactly the kind of dish that reminds people why they fell in love with Leeann Chin in the first place while giving them something new to try."
Honey Mango Chili Chicken is available at Leeann Chin locations beginning July 22, 2026. Leeann Chin loyalty members can enjoy the Honey Mango Chili Chicken or any combo containing the new dish for just $7.22, a nod to the launch date, from July 22nd through July 28th.
