I screamed inside when I saw Smokin’ & Grillin’ wit AB come out with a Chick fil A spicy chicken sandwich copycat recipe. Chick fil A is hands-down my favorite fast food place ever. Their spicy chicken sandwich is actually spicy, which I love. The buttery bread and chick fil a sauce complete the whole sandwich with a side of waffle fries. This is going to be a good or bad attempt, but I’m willing to try! AB is a great cook and makes everything look easy. He is such a natural and I get excited to see how he prepares everything together. I haven’t perfected making fried chicken yet, but if I’m craving Chick fil A on a Sunday then I’ll be in luck if I try this recipe out. It amazes me how identical this sandwich looks compared to the original one, especially how it’s presented.
