Cheesy Mac and Chicken Cups

10 Mins
15 Servings

Ingredients

15 Chicken Nuggets

1/2 pound elbow macaroni

1/2 cup prepared cheese sauce

15 Hawaiian-style rolls

8 slices American cheese, halved

1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon Panko bread crumbs

These little cups are packed full of comfort food — creamy mac and cheese, and hearty chicken.

Directions

1. Cook Tyson® Chicken Nuggets according to package instructions. Set aside.

2. Prepare elbow macaroni according to package instructions, strain and return to pot. Stir in cheese sauce and mix well. Set aside.

3. Spray a 12 hole muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray.

4. Flatten each roll with the palm of your hand and press into each muffin mold. Pour 1/4 cup cheesy pasta on each flattened roll. Place half a slice of cheese onto the cheesy mixture and top with a nugget.

5. Mix Parmesan cheese and bread crumbs together and sprinkle over the top of each nugget. Bake for 10-15 minutes. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
