We’re obsessed with Chick-fil-A’s chicken nuggets. Each one is golden, crispy and loaded with flavor! But to keep our diets well-balanced, we try to limit our trips to the drive-thru. Even though we’ve gotten our hands on a solid recipe for copycat Chick-fil-A chicken nuggets, part of the draw of fast food is that it’s, well, fast.

We needed a way to recreate the Chick-fil-A experience without doing much work—and we found it at Costco.

What Costco chicken nuggets are Chick-fil-A dupes?

Look for Just Bare’s Lightly Breaded Chicken Breast Chunks. This Costco find is the perfect dupe! Made with boneless, skinless chicken breasts, they have the flavor and crunch we look for at Chick-fil-A. But most importantly, they don’t require us to get dressed and go to a drive-thru.

It’s irksome when TikTok creators or blogs promise that a recipe hack or frozen food will taste just like something else we already know and love. This is especially true with Chick-fil-A because the chain’s nuggets are pretty unique. They have a distinct shape and the breading is lighter and crisper than other fast-food nuggets.

The Just Bare chicken breast chunks do not disappoint in taste or texture!

How do I make Costco chicken nuggets?

These can be deep-fried, of course, like the fast-food version. But making them at home gives you an option to make things healthier. You can bake them in the oven or use an air fryer for a crisp but oil-free approach. Just throw them in the air fryer for 8 minutes at 350°F or in the oven for around 23 minutes. These are definitely one of Costco’s best-kept secrets.

Where else can I get ’em?

If you don’t have a Costco membership or aren’t prepared to find freezer space for a four-pound bag of chicken nuggets, look for the Just Bare nuggets at other grocery stores. I know for sure Target carries a smaller 24-ounce bag.

While you’re at it, you may want to pick up the Just Bare spicy chicken breast too. I’ve heard it makes a good DIY spicy Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich!
