Chick-fil-A's Best Recipes You Can Do At Home

Credited with introducing the original boneless breast of chicken sandwich and pioneering in-mall fast food, Chick-fil-A is one of the largest privately-owned restaurant chains in America.


Chic-fil-A has a variety of chicken products such as nuggets, chicken salads and chicken sandwiches.

Chic-Fil-A is known for their famous chicken sandwich, but also has great wraps, salads, soups and much more. Chic-Fil-A has a great breakfast menu and is the only place you get biscuits and sausage gravy at a drive-through window in your pajamas in the morning. The chain has over 1,300 locations in 37 U.S. states and the District of Columbia. It is distinct among fast-food chains in that its stores are closed on Sundays...



The company's TV ads have featured cows parachuting onto a football field during a college football game, complete with "EAT MOR CHIKIN" banners, and attacking the hamburger vendor.

With the country facing challenging economic times, Chick-fil-A continues to grow, with plans to add 65 new stand-alone locations across the nation this year, creating more than 4,200 new jobs as well as providing a positive business impact in local communities. The menu at the newest restaurants include several enhancements rolled out chain-wide in 2008.


These include a new Chick-fil-A Chargrilled and Fruit Salad with Harvest Nut Granola topping, Chick-fil-A Chick-n-Strips that are 50 percent larger and are complemented by a new proprietary dipping sauce called Chick-fil-A Sauce, a Chick-fil-A Chicken Salad Sandwich served on a new premium Wheatberry bread with green leaf lettuce, and Cool Wrap selections that come in a new multi-grain flatbread.
