Nando's in hot water with shoppers after the launch of its Christmas menu

Chicken chain giant Nando's has annoyed shoppers with the launch of its Christmas menu.

Last month, Nando’s announced the long-awaited return of its much-missed Fino Pitta and a range of festive faves in its latest menu shake-up - which was rolled across restaurants, click and collect and exclusively on Nando’s delivery this month.

Fan favourite Fino Pitta consists of a toasted pitta filled with two flame-grilled chicken thighs, grilled halloumi cheese, caramelised red onion relish and wild garlic aioli, topped with lettuce.

Other Christmas classics that have returned include Nando’s PERi-PERi Gravy for smothering over your meal, as well as its sweet & citrusy Spiced Clementine PERi-PERi baste.

There is also a 'new-and-improved' warm Rainbow Rice Bowl, featuring warmed spiced grains and long-stem broccoli with houmous, rainbow slaw, pickled golden carrot and a sprinkle of seeds.

But not everyone has been impressed with the new menu.

Posting a picture of its new clementine-spiced chicken with Peri-Peri gravy on Facebook, Nando's wrote: "In the festive spirit. Gravy and Spiced Clementine are back!"

People quickly flocked to slate what was missing.

"Nobody asked for this. Bring back chicken livers!" said one person.

Another added: "Bring back chicken livers."

"Bring back chicken livers!!" demanded yet another Nando's fan.

A fourth said "Bring back chicken livers, forget this cr*p" - to which somebody replied "Chicken livers with gravy sounds nice."

"I miss them so much," responded another person.

Nando’s brand-new menu is available in all UK restaurants now.
