Chick-fil-A will offer make-it-yourself chicken parmesan meal kits starting Monday as more people decide to eat at home amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
The fast-food chain’s meal kits are additions to the regular menu of sandwiches, salads and other fare. The kits feature pre-measured and pre-cooked ingredients for a meal that can be made in less than 30 minutes. Kits start at $14.99 and serve two adults.
The kits come with two seasoned, breaded, and pressure-cooked chicken fillets, marinara sauce, Italian-style cheeses, and creamy garlic and lemon pasta.
Customers can choose Original Chicken, Grilled or Spicy fillets. Meal kits are available at participating Chick-fil-A restaurants via the drive-thru, the Chick-fil-A app, DoorDash, Uber Eats and Grubhub.
Chick-fil-A’s meal kits come amid the sudden shift from restaurant dining to at-home eating prompted by the pandemic, coupled with panic buying at grocery stores.
“Due to changes in our restaurant landscape over the past two months, we decided to resurface and fast track the Meal Kit concept to meet our guest’s current needs,” said Ben Bolling, menu and packaging program lead at Chick-fil-A.
The franchise first tested the concept exclusively in Atlanta in 2018. After receiving positive feedback, they decided to kick-start the project.
