Chick-fil-a Grilled Chicken Nuggets recipe
We love Chick-fil-a but chicken nuggets for the entire family can really add up. Plus, it isn’t always that convenient to head to the restaurant. This easy Chick-fil-a Grilled Chicken Nuggets recipe is so amazing that you will want to make these all the time.
My kids were thrilled to get these at home and I was thrilled with the money I saved. Sounds like a win to me. 🙂
Now, I have tried the frozen copycat Chick-fil-a nuggets at the grocery store and my kids were not impressed. They are picky! So, I set out to make my own while also keeping it simple.
This recipe turned out to be a huge success because it is so easy and all of the kids thought the chicken nuggets were amazing. You are going to love these nuggets!
What does Chick Fil A marinate their chicken in?
The secret is pickle juice. Yes, pickle juice! The chicken is marinated in this and it gives the chicken that distinct flavor that is also so tender.
