How to Reheat Chick-fil-A Chicken Nuggets

Enjoy hot Chick-fil-A nuggets at home.

Chick-fil-A, a fast food chicken restaurant located in 38 states, is known for its chicken sandwiches, chicken nuggets and waffle fries. Chick-fil-A had over $3.2 billion in yearly sales in 2009. The Chick-fil-A nuggets tray is a convenient appetizer or hors d'oeuvres for a crowd. If there are any nuggets left over or if you can't immediately eat your nuggets meal, you can easily reheat them at home. The chicken nuggets maintain their flavor and do not get soggy if you reheat them the correct way.

Things You'll Need

• Oven
• Baking sheet or pan
• Pot holder or oven mitts
• Aluminum foil

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.

2. Place chicken nuggets on a baking sheet or pan. Space them evenly so they do not touch.

3. Heat the chicken nuggets for 20 to 25 minutes.

4. Remove the nuggets from the oven with a pot holder or oven mitts. If you do not serve them immediately, cover with aluminum foil immediately so the nuggets do not dry out.

Tips & Warnings

• For best results, always use a conventional oven to reheat. Microwaves often dry out the nuggets and make them chewy.

• As all Chick-fil-A stores are closed on Sunday, order a cold nugget tray and pick up on Saturday. Store at 40 degrees F or less. Reheat on Sunday. This is perfect for Sunday events such as championship sporting events.

• The desired internal temperature of chicken is 135 degrees Fahrenheit. Other temperatures may not be safe to eat.

• Discard food that has been left at room temperature for over two hours.
