Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (12 count) package Hawaiian sweet rolls
- 3 cups cooked, shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken works well)
- 1 cup Buffalo sauce (use your favorite brand)
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon dried minced onion
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
- In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken and Buffalo sauce. Mix until the chicken is fully coated.
- Slice the Hawaiian rolls horizontally in one piece, keeping the tops and bottoms together. Place the bottom half of the rolls into the prepared baking dish.
- Spread the Buffalo chicken mixture evenly over the bottom layer of rolls. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the chicken layer.
- Place the top half of the rolls over the cheese layer.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, dried minced onion, and dried parsley to create the garlic butter topping.
- Brush the entire top surface of the slider buns generously with the garlic butter mixture.
- Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil. Bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and the tops are golden brown.
- Let the sliders rest for 5 minutes before slicing between the rolls. Serve warm as a crowd pleasing food.
Notes
- For extra flavor, mix 1/4 cup of ranch dressing into the chicken mixture along with the Buffalo sauce.
- If you prefer a less spicy flavor, reduce the amount of Buffalo sauce or add a tablespoon of melted butter to the sauce mixture.
- These sliders are excellent served with celery sticks and blue cheese dressing on the side.
