Get a First Look at the New Menu Items From Chick-fil-A in Its Test Kitchen (VIDEO)
Chick-fil-A has been grilled and deep-fried in the media since CEO Dan Cathy admitted the company's support for the traditional family in 2012. However, business actually experienced an uptick in the heat of the controversy, so a phoenix rising from the ashes metaphor doesn't really work here. Rather, despite remaining closed on Sundays, the Atlanta-based company recently surpassed KFC as the nation's best-selling chicken chain.
Their success has also come without a solid presence in urban markets like New York, Chicago and Los Angeles. However, as USA Today reports, Chick-fil-A is looking to change their absence in America's largest cities. This year will see the famously Christian company expanding into those markets with a focus on New York.
USA Today was invited into Chick-fil-A's test kitchen to see how new healthier and socially-minded dishes will woo Millennials into stores. Watch a sneak preview of new menu offerings here and read the companion article to learn how the once-regional chain plans to claim a seat among the giants of fast food.
