Taco Bell’s chicken nuggets are getting the spicy treatment, and honestly, it’s about time.

The chain is now testing Diablo Nuggets, a fiery new version of their Crispy Chicken Nuggets, dusted in Diablo Sauce–flavored seasoning that promises to bring the same burn as the packets you nervously open after 2 a.m.

They’re being tested at select Minneapolis locations, available in five-piece ($4.99) and 10-piece ($7.99) servings. Combo meals start at $6.99, while the $9 Discovery Luxe Box levels things up with Diablo Nuggets, Nacho Fries, a Doritos Locos Taco, Cinnamon Twists, and a drink—basically a heat-lover’s sampler.

There’s also a new Nuggets Deluxe Meal for $11.49 that goes all-in: five nuggets (classic or Diablo), a Chalupa, a Crunchy Taco, Nacho Fries, and a large drink.

To cool things off, Loaded Taco Topped Fries are also back in the test market. They’re loaded with seasoned beef, shredded lettuce, Spicy Ranch, fiesta strips, diced tomatoes, cheddar, and warm nacho cheese sauce for $4.99.
