1. The original Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich
Since it was first invented in the early 1960s, the recipe for this classic sandwich has not changed. After testing out hundreds of recipes, our founder, Truett Cathy created the recipe for the original Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich with two pickles on a toasted buttered bun, and to this day, each one is still crafted with quality ingredients and breaded by hand.
We can’t get enough of these bite-sized classics, and neither can our loyal customers. Gifting Chick-fil-A Nuggets to loved ones in heart-shaped trays is one of our favorite Valentine’s Day traditions.

Served with delicious dill pickle chips, green leaf lettuce, tomato and Pepper Jack Cheese, the Spicy Deluxe Sandwich takes bold flavor to the next level.
