Wow this is amazing, What a nice way to jazz up these chicken nuggets! I’d love to try this!!
I like how you use 2 types of bell pepper — colorful and delicious! These would be so good with peppers fresh from the garden.
If you made these with tortillas or wraps, do you suggest rolling them like a burrito?
I would probably have to skip the avocado dressing. Not a fan of avocado.
These look so cute. I really think our kids would like them.
These must smell delicious while cooking! Could you add a few slices of jalapeño pepper to make the fajitas a bit spicy?
We don’t have Chick fil A where I live but this looks like a fun appetizer!
These sound delicious! I do have a Chick-fil-a in my area but I haven’t been there in so long.
An interesting twist on fajitas. These would be good for a cinco de mayo party.
Sounds delish!! A great appetizer for a barbeque!!
This recipe would be awesome to make as an appetizer at our get together’s or the Superbowl. Thanks bunches.
This is another one of those great recipes I find for the weekend to give mom a break or make ahead and fridge them for the week, I really like the fact that you added the avocado dressing to this, love it and thanks for share 🙂 @tisonlyme143
These look like really nice appetizers. Thank you for sharing.
Chicken Fajita Bites Using Chick-fil-A Nuggets would be an easy dinner for the kids
It looks very good and it would be great for a ladies’ afternoon party.
Never had this dish it looks good maybe i will try it.
This would make a great appetizer. I know my family and friends would love this.
Yumm! I love fajitas, I’m definitely going to try and make these soon, they look amazing! Thanks for the recipe 🙂
I just copied this to use at a jewelry party. What a wonderful recipe.
These chicken fajita bites you made using Chick-fil-A Nuggets look delicious! I think I may have to make some as appetizers for my daughter’s birthday coming up!
I love this recipe idea. My kids love mexican food and Chick Fil A nuggets. I think they would love trying this one.
What a great idea. I love that you used a catering menu from Chick-fil-A and put your own personal twist to it. I will try these out at my next party and I am sure they will be a big hit.
What a yummy looking appetizer! I love how creative you were with the catering menu from Chick-fil-A.
I love this idea! This and the cookie pies 🙂 My daughter loves the bites – she wouldn’t eat the rest but I could get her bites and make this stuff for me 🙂 Awesome recipes, thank you!
I like how creative you are with this everyday product. Can you substitute the basic store brand chicken nugget for the chick-Fil-A ones?
I would imagine you could or make your own. This post was created as part of my brand ambassador program with Chick-fil-A
Oh my goodness I love chick-fil-a nuggets! I think this would be so yummy! Thanks for sharing!
I was lucky enough to try these Chicken Fajita Bites Using Chick-fil-A Nuggets! OMG Easy to make AND delicious.
Plus it’s a neat way to make a party finger food. Of course, my family would also enjoy the neat concept for supper just as much.
Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Do you find that the pastry shells are delicate enough that they break when biting into? I sometimes feel that cups like that are “tough” and hurt my gums to bit into them.
It depends on the brand and what is inside. I have found that it the filling is dry, the crust tends to be as well. This are paper thin shells so they are really tender.
Looking great! I love the idea of little bites like this. I love fajitas….this is perfect. Nice job.
