Chick-fil-A adds spicy biscuit to menu
January 3, 2011

KNOXVILLE -- Chick-fil-A® is offering customers a new alternative to break-up their breakfast routine in 2011. On Jan. 10, the Atlanta-based restaurant chain will introduce a new Spicy Chicken Biscuit to its breakfast menu to complement the Spicy Chicken Sandwich Chick-fil-A added to its lunch and dinner menus in June.

To celebrate, Chick-fil-A is giving customers a chance to taste the new biscuit for free before it is officially added to the menu. Customers can visit www.getspicychicken.com to reserve a free Chick-fil-A® Spicy Chicken Biscuit at participating Chick-fil-A restaurants. Reservations may be redeemed the week of Jan. 3 – 8 during breakfast hours (6:30 to 10:30 a.m.) at the selected restaurant by presenting a printed confirmation from the reservation web site. Reservations may be redeemed in both the restaurant and drive-thru.

The Spicy Chicken Biscuit features the chain's signature hand-breaded boneless breast of chicken seasoned with a fiery blend of peppers and spices, pressure-cooked in 100 percent refined peanut oil and served on a made-from-scratch buttermilk biscuit. The biscuit starts at $2.25 as an entrée and is also offered as part of a Chick-fil-A® Breakfast Meal, which includes a beverage and an order of Hash Browns or other side item, starting at $4.09.

"Customers began asking for a spicy version of our hero breakfast offering, the Chick-fil-A® Chicken Biscuit, as soon as our Spicy Chicken Sandwich hit menu boards in June, and the demand for spicy products in general continues to grow," said Woody Faulk, Chick-fil-A's vice president of brand strategy and design, who is responsible for the chain's menu. "The Spicy Biscuit will give our customers the option to start their day with something truly different, and certainly a whole lot 'hotter,' as we continue to expand and vary our breakfast menu. The Spicy Biscuit will give customers another reason to visit Chick-fil-A for breakfast – a day-part that continues to grow."
