Method

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

In medium bowl, stir together salsa, tomato, scallions, lime juice and cilantro. Set aside.

On large sheet pan, place chicken nuggets. Place in oven and bake 3 minutes. Place tortilla taco shells on separate sheet pan; add to oven. Bake chicken nuggets and taco shells for 4-5 minutes more, until shells are crisp and chicken are heated throughout.

While chicken and shells are baking, place refried beans in medium bowl. Add cayenne pepper and stir to mix well.

To prepare tacos, spread a spoonful of refried beans in each taco shell. Add two nuggets. Pass salsa, cheese and lettuce separately, to be sprinkled on tacos.
