• The seasonal chicken sandwich is a twist on the chain's classic chicken sandwich. 
• The Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich will be available on August 28.

Chick-fil-A has updated its classic chicken sandwich for the first time — with a fall twist.

The fast food chain is adding a seasonal chicken sandwich to its menu that blends sweet, savory, and spicy notes. The Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich, available in restaurants August 28, takes a hand-breaded chicken filet and pairs it with a pimento cheese spread, pickled jalapeños, and a bun drizzled with honey.  

The new sandwich ramps up Chick-fil-A's original chicken sandwich recipe, one that the fast food chain hasn't experimented with since it was created in 1964, until now. Last year, the chain served about 527 million chicken sandwiches, according to data from QSR Magazine. 

"We wanted to create a standout sandwich that would deliver a unique spin for our guests, without losing the classic taste of the Original Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich," Stuart Tracy, Chick-fil-A Chef and creator behind the Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich, said in a statement. 

For an added taste of fall — or perhaps to counteract the spicy notes of the sandwich — Chick-fil-A is releasing a new seasonal milkshake: Caramel Crumble Milkshake. The milkshake, which is a take on blondie desserts, is blended with caramel flavors, blondie crumbles, and Chick-fil-A's "Icedream" recipe. The milkshake follows the release of last year's Autumn Spice milkshake, making it the seventh seasonal shake the chain has released since 2006.
