White Castle has introduced two new limited-time menu items - a Chicken Fajita Slider and Jalapeño Cravioli. The Chicken Fajita Slider features a crispy chicken patty topped with grilled onions and peppers, jalapeño cheese, and green chili aioli. The Jalapeño Cravioli are fried pockets of cream cheese and diced jalapeños, served with a green chili aioli dipping sauce. Both items are available nationwide through June 14 or while supplies last.
