Chick-fil-A Just Dropped A Spicy New Sandwich

NEW: Maple Pepper Bacon Sandwich

Meet the brand-new Maple Pepper Bacon Sandwich! According to Chick-fil-A, the sammie strikes a balance between sweet maple syrup and peppery heat. It sounds vaguely similar to the Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich they launched for a limited time in fall 2023.

Chick-fil-A tested this new sandwich last year at locations in in Indianapolis, IN and Lexington, KY, and it sounds like the tests were met with great reception.

According to the fast food giant, the Maple Pepper Bacon Sandwich is crafted used boneless chicken breast that's been marinated in a lemon and herb concoction. Next, it's topped with pepper jack cheese, lettuce, brown sugar bacon (YUM), and sweet-spicy pickles. It's all stacked in between a pillowy-soft brioche bun.

“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 with Chick-fil-A. "It is a delicious blend of sweet, savory and spicy, offering an entirely different flavor profile than any other sandwich we’ve launched."

Duncan also says there are "several" new menu items to come sometime in the future.

Peach Milkshake

Peach lovers can finally enjoy the sweet embrace of Chick-fil-A's famed Peach Milkshake starting June 10, too. It's celebrating its 15th year on menus, which just makes it all the more sweeter!

According to Chick-fil-A, the Peach Milkshake combines their signature Icedream® ice cream base with peach puree. The creamy sip is topped with delicious whipped cream and a cherry, too.

“For me – and many of our guests – Chick-fil-A’s Peach Milkshake signals the arrival of summer," says Christy Cook, Chick-fil-A Chef. "This June, we’re thrilled to bring back the seasonal favorite alongside the new Maple Pepper Bacon Sandwich. The Summer is all about time spent outside, eating good food with family and friends, and we think this is the perfect pairing to enjoy during those long, hot days.”
