Ah, summertime is here again and with it come all the trappings: hot weather, outdoor gatherings and a new Chick-fil-A sandwich.
The Atlanta-based fast food chain is introducing its newest seasonal entrée – the Maple Pepper Bacon Sandwich. The sandwich is stacked with smoky flavors that compliment a backyard barbecue in every way.
Also back on the menu at Chick-fil-A is the much-loved Peach Milkshake, which returns for its 15th year.
The sandwich is made with a lemon herb marinated boneless breast of chicken, grilled for a tender, smoky taste. It is served on a buttery and toasted maple flavored brioche bun, topped with Pepper Jack cheese, green leaf lettuce, bacon hand-tossed in a brown sugar and pepper blend, topped with sweet and spicy pickles.
“We are always looking for ways to make unique twists to our entrée selection and the Maple Pepper Bacon Sandwich is a delicious spin on the Chick-fil-A flavors our Guests know and love,” says Allison Duncan, director of menu and packaging. “It is a delicious blend of sweet, savory and spicy, offering an entirely different flavor profile than any other sandwich we’ve launched. We have several new and exciting offerings in the pipeline and look forward to continuing to surprise our Guests with bold, new tastes in the future!”
