Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich
The classic Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich has such a distinct taste, and it's all because of the secret ingredient: dill pickle juice. The chicken breasts are brined for at least six hours in a mixture of pickle juice, pepper, and sugar, which gives the chicken that juicy finish and salty, tangy bite.
