  • Author: Kitschen Cat
  • Yield: 2-4 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • ½ teaspoon cumin (affiliate)
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 small buns

Slaw

  • 1 tablespoon canola oil (affiliate)
  • 3 ears corn, shucked
  • 2 cups shredded cabbage
  • ¼ cup red onion, minced
  • 3 tablespoons cilantro, roughly chopped
  • 2 tablespoons mayo
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1 jalapeno, minced

Copycat Chick Fil-A Sauce

  • Recipe from House of Yumm
  • ¼ cup mayo
  • 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 2 teaspoons dijon mustard (affiliate)
  • 2 tablespoons honey (affiliate)
  • 2 tablespoons bbq sauce
  • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Start by cutting each chicken breast in half lengthwise, and then carefully cut those smaller pieces into half horizontally. You should end up with 8 fillets about ½ inch thick.
  2. Mix together spices and sprinkle liberally on both sides of the breasts.
  3. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil at medium high heat in a large skillet (I prefer cast iron). Add chicken breasts in a single layer and cook for about 5 minutes on each side. They will be nice and browned on the outside but tender and juicy inside!
  4. To prepare slaw, place shucked corn in a large skillet with oil. Cook on medium heat, stirring often, until corn starts to char, about 5-10 minutes.
  5. In large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, red onion, cilantro, mayo, salt, jalapeno, lime juice, and charred corn. Mix well.
  6. Mix together all ingredients for Chick Fil A sauce
  7. Toast buns, assemble sandwich with chicken breast, slaw, and sauce, enjoy!!
