Burger chain Shake Shack recently drew buzz for launching a new chicken sandwich. Dubbed "Chick'n Shack," the sandwich is served on a potato roll and made with cage-free chicken breast that's slow-cooked in a buttermilk marinade before it's fried; toppings include pickles, shredded lettuce, and a tangy buttermilk-herb mayonnaise. Select locations of the nationwide chain make the sandwich available for pickup catering orders.
With outposts in Brooklyn and the Flatiron district, Hill Country Chicken in New York serves Texas-inspired comfort food. Adapted by a family recipe, the "Mama Els" style features skinless chicken that's removed, seasoned, battered, and rolled in cracker crumbs. Available for pickup or delivery with advance notice of 24 hours, catering packages include chicken breasts, thighs, wings, or tenders. Sides include buttermilk biscuits, pimento mac 'n' cheese, salads, and miniature pies in flavors such as bourbon pecan.
