Directions

Reheating Chick-fil-A Nuggets

1. Preheat oven to 325°F.

2. Transfer chicken from aluminum pan to one or more cookie sheets and separate individual pieces so they are not touching. (Do not use foil aluminum pan to reheat chicken.)

3. Place cookie sheet(s) into oven and cook 15-20 minutes or until chicken holds an internal temperature of at least 165°F for at least 15 seconds.

Preparing Nugget Nachos

1. Preheat oven to 425°F.

2. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

3. Open tostada shell package, and gently break each tostada shell in half. Arrange on baking sheets in a single layer.

4. Carefully slice cooked chicken nuggets into thirds. Then top tostada shells with cheese and nuggets. Place cookie sheets into oven and bake for 5 minutes.



5. Remove cookie sheets using hot pads. Carefully remove the tostadas from the hot baking sheet and arrange in a single layer on a serving platter.



6. Place romaine lettuce in the middle of the platter. Add pico de gallo, sour cream and guacamole on top of the lettuce.

7. If using, top with pickled jalapeños, radish and cilantro leaves.

Serve and enjoy!
