Get to know the flavors of the Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich


We’re taking our Chick-fil-A® Chicken Sandwich and creating something completely new. Inspired by all the elements of a great sandwich – savory, salty, sweet, and spicy flavors — the Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich is a flavorful spin on a familiar favorite. Watch the video and hear Chick-fil-A chef Stuart Tracy describe the story behind this sandwich.

We replaced the dill pickle chips in the original sandwich with pickled jalapeños, which have a mild spiciness — what Chick-fil-A chef Stuart Tracy calls “entry-level spice” — and pairs nicely with the pimento cheese.

This is our own special recipe, made with smoky green chili peppers and sweet roasted pimento peppers, blended with cheeses and seasonings. (Not familiar with Pimento Cheese? Take our quiz to learn more about this Southern favorite.)

Finally, the sandwich is finished with a drizzle of honey. It’s just the right amount of sweetness that helps all the other flavors come together to form a flavorful sandwich we can’t wait for you to try.
