One of my favorite places to go to is Chick-Fil-A! And I love, love their Chick-Fil-A chicken sandwiches with some delicious mayo and pickles. In my opinion, one of the things that make for a unique and tasty sandwich from Chick-Fil-A is the fact that they cook their chicken in peanut oil. Peanut oil gives the chicken a special flavor. The kiddos will love this recipe too.

 

Copycat Chick-fil-A Sandwich

(Print this recipe at the very bottom of the page)

Here’s what you need= to make 4 Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwiches

  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Celery Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Basil
  • 1 cup Peanut Oil for frying
  • 4 Buns (buttered and toasted)
  • Pickle Slices!

      I just made these for dinner and we all loved them. I don’t think 100% like ChickFila but pretty darn close. I used the juice from regular dill pickle juice and pretty much followed the recipe exactly except I didn’t have celery salt and I used canola oil and fried in an iron skillet. I will for sure make again.

    I have what maybe a silly question. What kind of pickle juice? Does it matter?

      I used the juice from regular dill pickles like you put on burgers…and we loved them. They weren’t 100% ChickFilA but very close.

    I see all of these recipes for copy cat chick-fil-a chicken and they all involve marinating the chicken in pickle juice. I work at chick-fil-a and that is not what we do with the chicken. I can’t tell you what seasonings are in the breading because we don’t know, but the chicken is trimmed, dipped in an egg and milk wash and then breaded and fried in refined peanut oil. The only pickle is the pickle chips on the sandwich.

      Not to be rude, but who’s to say they don’t brine the chicken in some kind of pickle juice or dill vintage before they’re shipped to the stores. Now I don’t work there, never have, but odds are the chicken is brought to the store frozen or refrigerated, therefore it’s fairly reasonable they brine/marinade it before refrigerating/freezing it.

        Actually, I worked at Chick Fil A also and the meat is raw with nothing on it. It’s just like buying a package of chicken breast from a store. The chicken breast are not breaded and frozen they do everything from scratch.

    This is great!! We don’t have Chick-Fil-A in Oregon (we used to and I LOVED it), so I will definitely be giving this a try!

    I was so excited about this (since we eat at Chick-Fil-A a lot), until I saw the pickle juice. Ugh so not a fan of pickles lol. Thanks for posting, looking forward to following you and seeing what else you have 🙂

    I just made these tonight for dinner and they tasted really close to chic fil a.I did not have pickle juice so when mixing my milk and eggs together I added a little vinegar (mimics buttermilk) I also fried on the skillet high heat in coconut oil & butter. Came out so crispy. I think next time I will omit the celery salt.

    I made these tonight, but the outside was fully fried before the inside was fully cooked… If i left the chicken in longer, the outside would have burned. Any suggestions, or does anyone know what I did wrong?

      Mine cooked fast too. Turn down heat to low. The egg wash makes it turn brown fast. It looks burnt but mine didn’t taste burnt.

    i cooked this and fell in love. Cooked it two nights back to back it was so good. My family loves chick-fil-a. I don’t really care how the rest cook it but however come up with this recipe got it pretty darn close. I mean close ok. This one is going down in my recipe box. Can’t wait to cook it for friends.

    FYI…Chikfila cooks their chicken in a pressure cooker, not a deep fryer. This is why theirs is always so tender and never dried out.

    I loved this recipe. It was short,simple, and to the point. The sandwich tastes very similar to Chic Fil A. I used everything except basil (substituted oregano leaves) and celery salt. I used canola oil instead on peanut because I could not go to the store but to me it tasted just about the same! Go try it!

    Not even close. No pickle juice, no basil, no celery salt, no garlic salt and no paprika. If they were to soak in dill pickle juice, use celery salt and salt, they would be too salty to eat.

    Copycat recipes are either hit or miss but this one was SPOT On! Admittedly I did not marinate in the pickle juice because my grandson wouldn’t have gone near the finished product. I didn’t tell anyone that I was trying an imitation but they all said it tasted just like chik filet. I made nuggets also which were a huge hit!

    They were really good, I followed exactly, they’re not to salty, they are close in tasting like chic Fila, could even add alittle more salt. I’m sure the soaking it in pickle juice is more for a brine to keep it moist. I will try again, maybe tweak it some to get closer to chick file a taste. Thanks!
