How To Make chick-fil-a chicken (copycat)

  • Step 1
    Pound chicken breasts till they are thin enough for your taste. (I find a lot of breasts are really too thick for a sandwich so I pound out the thick part a little) Cut into chunks if you want nuggets.
  • Step 2
    Place chicken in plastic bag with pickle juice and marinate for an hour (preferably overnight)
  • Step 3
    Mix up eggs in separate bowl for the egg wash
  • Step 4
    Mix flour and remaining spices in another shallow bowl
  • Step 5
    Remove chicken from the pickle juice maranade and drain well. Dip into the egg wash and then into the flour mixture
  • Step 6
    Fry the chicken however you prefer here. Chick-Fil-A deep fries theirs in a pressure cooker.
