The Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich, which was the brand’s first-ever twist on the Original Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich in 2023, is making a comeback with a spicier option.

The classic sandwich features a Chick-fil-A fillet drizzled with honey, topped with pimento cheese and served on a toasted bun with mild pickled jalapeños.

The new Spicy Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich will feature a spicy fillet.

Chick-fil-A chef Stuart Tracy said: “When we released the Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich last fall, not only did we receive overwhelmingly positive feedback, but we also saw our guests making their own unique twists by swapping the Original fillet for the Spicy fillet.

“They inspired us to officially offer a spicy version as its own menu item, and we are thrilled to deliver what we know our guests want more of!”

Alongside the sandwich’s return, Chick-fil-A is also reviving its Banana Pudding Milkshake after a 13-year hiatus.

The Banana Pudding Milkshake, which first debuted in 2011, is made with Chick-fil-A’s Icedream dessert mixed with bananas and vanilla wafer cookie crumbles, then finished with whipped cream and a cherry on top.

The restaurant brand is also introducing the Banana Frosted Coffee – a blend of cold-brewed coffee, Icedream dessert, banana and vanilla wafer cookie crumbles.

Chick-fil-A menu and packaging director Allison Duncan said: “While our core products are what our guests know and love us for, we also like to keep variety and innovation top of mind.

“Whether we are surprising our guests with new flavours and offerings or taking classic items and bringing them back with a twist, each menu introduction is made after listening to their needs.”

In May 2024, Chick-fil-A introduced its 2024 seasonal entrée, the Maple Pepper Bacon Sandwich, and also brought back its Peach Milkshake.
