About the Fire-Grilled Chicken Leg
Our Fire-Grilled Chicken Leg brings all the flavor, none of the fuss. Marinated with our signature blend of citrus, garlic, and spice, then grilled to perfection over an open flame, it’s the kind of bold, juicy bite that keeps people coming back.
It’s just one piece—but it holds its own. Whether you’re adding it to a combo or pairing it with your favorite sides, the leg is a go-to for fans of deep, flame-kissed flavor.
At El Pollo Loco, every piece matters. That’s why every chicken leg is cooked in our restaurants, by real Grill Masters, every single day.

At El Pollo Loco, chicken isn’t just cooked—it’s crafted. Every piece is marinated in a signature blend of citrus, garlic, and spices for bold, bright flavor. Then it’s fire-grilled over an open flame for nearly an hour, giving it that unmistakable, flame-kissed finish.
What sides can I add to El Pollo Loco’s individual chicken pieces?
Just like everything at El Pollo Loco, our sides bring the flavor. Choose from seasoned rice, slow-simmered pinto beans, mashed potatoes and gravy, mac & cheese, buttery corn, coleslaw, broccoli, or a Loco Side Salad.
