The secret to getting juicy and perfectly seasoned meat even in the center is brining the chicken. It may take a few hours, but it is totally worth it.

How to Make Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich

Step 1:

Make the brine. In a large bowl, add all the dry ingredients and mix until well combined. Pour in the water and mix until the salt and spices are dissolved. Set it aside.

Step 2:

Make the milk wash. Add eggs and milk to a bowl and whisk until well combined. Set aside.

Step 3:

Make the seasoned coater. Sift flour or spice into a bowl, then add all the other ingredients except for the milk wash. Mix until well combined.

Step 4:

Remove tenderloin from the chicken breasts, then split them into 4-ounce fillets.

Step 5:

Place the chicken fillet in the brine for about 6 to 8 hours.

Step 6:

Remove the chicken from the brine and pat dry with paper towels.

Step 7:

Add a generous amount of oil into your pan and heat until it reaches 325F.
