I decided I would share this CopyCat Chick-fil-A Chicken Salad Sandwich Recipe with you today. With warmer weather on the way, sandwich recipes are a great idea for lunches and quick and easy dinners. I shared our CopyCat Starbucks Egg Salad with you as well as our CopyCat Panera Tuna Salad Sandwich. All of these sandwiches are great and will allow you to whip up a quick meal.
CopyCat Chick-fil-A Chicken Salad Sandwich Recipe
Chick-fil-A is one of my favorite places to stop in for a sandwich and or salad all year long. During the summer I love to grab a quick sandwich.

Salt & Pepper to taste

Toast bread.
Top 2 slices of toast with lettuce.

If you have enjoyed a Chick-fil-A Chicken salad sandwich before you can understand why they can be addicting. If you have yet to try one, whip up a batch of this CopyCat Chick-fil-A Chicken Salad Sandwich Recipe and a glass of this CopyCat Chick-fil-A Lemonade and you can enjoy Chick-fil-A at home for a fraction of the cost.
I am so excited for the warmer weather and longer days to arrive. Thankfully these sandwiches will have my quick lunches and dinners taken care of once those warm days arrive ha ha. Do you look for great quick and easy cold meal ideas? I know hot food during the spring and summer never appeals to me much. I love to make lots of salads and sandwiches.

Copycat Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich
Copycat Chick- fil- A Chicken Nuggets and Sauce
Your recipe is missing one thing .. Nutmeg.. it gets a 1/2 teaspoon
Exact ally Nutmeg the secret ingredient that if you have sensitive taste buds it stands out immensely !!! I was looking for this in all the copy cat chickfila chicken salad recipes but no one puts it in there and this cannot be left out if you are going to make a copycat recipe for this recipe. It’s a must!!!!
That is a huge amount! A pinch would be sufficient for this recipe. Don’t ruin your chicken salad.
Chickfila uses their fried nuggets for their chicken salad. They use the leftover ones as well as cooking ones just for this purpose. As a former employee this surprised me when I found out! :-)
This chicken salad looks so yummy! I am a huge fan of different chicken salad recipes and I can not wait to give this one a try. I have yet to be to a Chick-fil-A but I think we are getting one here in town soon so I will have to give them a try.
Yum! This sounds delicious! I’ve never been to a Chick-fil-A…gasp…I know! They just have started to pop up around my area. But I’m going to try this soon! And I’ve heard amazing things about Chick-fil-A so I might have to get over to one =) Found you on the Wonderful Wednesday Blog Hop!
This sandwich looks delicious and what a great idea to make your own at home :)
Hi I’m new to your site and a new follower. I haven’t had lunch and this looks sooooo good. Thanks for sharing. Blessings
This recipe looks amazing! I love Chick fil A too, and I love a homemade chicken salad. This sounds like the best of both rolled into one! I would love if you would stop by and share this at my blog party, Celebrate It!

Would canned chicken in water work just as fine?
This tasted SO good! I added nutmeg as suggested by two of the commenters and it turned out beautifully! Thank you!

This sandwich combines my favourite fixings. It has been added to my recipe collection.
This looks awesome! I have been searching for some great sandwiches for our Memorial Day Picnic and this one just completed my hunt! Thank you for sharing!
I worked at Chick-fil-A for 3 years, and never was there ever any nutmeg used. The one that commented about them using chicken nuggets was correct. We also used any fillets that were left over. We had to scrape off the extra breading, but of course there was always some left on the chicken. I am convinced that this is why Chick-fil-A’s chicken salad tastes like no other!
These are not my words these are my husband word ” Man it was REALLY REALLY good”. I can taste something over and over again that I make and not be sure it’s good. But when you make it for others and they tell you how good it is. Then you have some worth making again.
