Chick-fil-A to Test Cauliflower Sandwich in Charleston

Provided

Chick-fil-A announced today that they will begin testing their first plant-forward entrée, the Chick-fil-A Cauliflower Sandwich (right), at restaurants in three markets – including Charleston. The sandwich is made with a filet cut from a whole, real cauliflower and is similar to the original Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich – it is marinated, breaded with the restaurant’s signature seasoning, pressure-cooked, and served on a toasted buttery bun with two dill pickle chips. 

Starting on Monday, February 13th, Chick-fil-A will be testing the cauliflower sandwich in these three markets: Denver, Charleston, and North Carolina’s Greensboro-Triad region.

“Cauliflower is the hero of our new sandwich, and it was inspired by our original Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich,” said Leslie Neslage, director of menu and packaging at Chick-fil-A. “Guests told us they wanted to add more vegetables into their diets, and they wanted a plant-forward entrée that tasted uniquely Chick-fil-A. Our new sandwich is made with the highest quality ingredients and whole vegetables, and we hope it offers customers another reason to dine at Chick-fil-A.”

Customers in the three test markets can check the Chick-fil-A® App or contact their local Chick-fil-A restaurant to find out if their restaurant will be participating in the test.

“We explored every corner of the plant-based space in search of the perfect centerpiece for our plant-forward entrée,” said Stuart Tracy, culinary developer of the Chick-fil-A Cauliflower Sandwich. “Time and time again, we kept returning to cauliflower as the base of our sandwich. After a significant amount of development, we knew we had a one-of-a-kind entrée; one that puts a delicious spin on what we’re known for – great tasting food with ingredients you can trust.”
