This 2-Ingredient Snack Lets You Enjoy Chick-fil-A on a Sunday

How did we never think to do this?

Nothing is worse than craving Chick-fil-A, only to remember it's a Sunday. This realization gets even more disappointing when you realize how amazing it would be to have those perfect chicken nuggets to snack on while watching Sunday football.

Unfortunately, at least for now, there isn't any sign suggesting that we'll be able to enjoy some Chick-fil-A chicken while watching a Sunday game any time soon. (A girl can dream though, right?) The good news is that I have found a way to recreate those beloved Chick-fil-A flavors at home that might be even more delicious than what you get at the drive-thru. Oh, and did I mention it only requires two ingredients?

Chicken Nuggets in a Blanket Are The Easiest Way to Enjoy Chick-fil-A On A Sunday

When I think of tailgating snacks, one of the first foods that comes to mind is pigs in a blanket. You simply can’t go wrong with a classic like pigs in a blanket. But, I don’t think we are realizing the full potential that wrapping foods in crescent dough has. I can’t see any reason why you shouldn’t take some inspiration from this beloved party app and change your game-day snack lineup for the better.

And what better way to take advantage of this potential than by using crescent dough to recreate one of Chick-fil-A’s most beloved menu items? By using chicken nuggets instead of cocktail wieners in your pigs in a blanket, you have yourself something that looks pretty close to a Chicken Mini, if not better.

For a 2-ingredient recipe, this idea certainly blew my mind. If you squint a little bit, chicken nuggets in a blanket look like you picked them up fresh from Chick-fil-A that morning. But, by making them yourself, you get to enjoy this delicious snack fresh out of the oven—and on any day of the week you want.

There is nothing wrong with a pig in a blanket. But, sometimes you need to switch it up and try something new. This seems like the perfect opportunity to grab that emergency bag of chicken nuggets you have in your freezer and cook up this unique recipe for your next game day. Here's how to make them at home.

How to Make Chicken Nuggets in a Blanket

Dare I say this recipe is even easier than running to your nearest Chick-fil-A to pick up some Chicken Minis from the drive-thru?

All you need to do is take your frozen chicken nuggets and cook them according to package instructions. Then, wrap them in a little bit of premade crescent dough, taking care to leave some of the chicken nugget visible. Then, bake until the dough looks golden, and you are good to go.

If you're feeling fancy, you could brush the baked nuggets with some honey butter when they come out of the oven for the true Chick-fil-A experience. Another easy upgrade would be to grab some Chick-fil-A sauce at the grocery store for dipping, or even make it yourself.

But, just a chicken nugget and some crescent roll dough is a match made in heaven in itself. With such easy preparation, you don’t even need to take your eyes off the game to pop these in the oven for a few seconds.

And there you have it! The best way to upgrade your chicken nuggets for any fall day—whether football is on or not. It is only the beginning of fall, which means we have more than enough time to find the best foods to wrap in crescent dough and enjoy. Pizza in a blanket? Chili in a blanket? Jalapeño poppers in a blanket? The possibilities are truly endless.
