The new Salsa Roja features a roasted tomatillo base with chipotle adobo, jalapeno peppers, chili peppers, and garlic powder.
Items on the new Del Dorado Chicken Menu include:
- New Del Dorado Chicken Epic Burrito - Grilled marinated chicken, Salsa Roja, slow-cooked beans, shredded spicy Jack cheese, diced onions, shredded cabbage, diced tomato, and sour cream, wrapped in a warm, oversized flour tortilla.

In addition to the new menu, Del Taco continues to offer the limited-time Orange Cream Shake. The shake features a 16-oz vanilla shake blended with Fanta Orange soda.
Both the Del Dorado Chicken Menu and Orange Cream Shake are available now for a limited time through November 11, 2025.
The name for the menu is an interesting choice as "dorado" translates into "gold" or "golden", whereas the main feature here is a new Salsa Roja ("roja" meaning "red", i.e., "red sauce"). Usually, when I see "dorado" in reference to Mexican food, it refers to a crispy-fried item.
