Ingredients
Scale
Gather these ingredients to make your Buffalo Chicken Sliders:
- 3 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken works well)
- ½ cup buffalo sauce (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 12 slider buns
- 6 slices of provolone or cheddar cheese
- ½ cup ranch or blue cheese dressing
- 2 tablespoons chopped green onions or parsley for garnish
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
Prepare the Chicken Mixture:
- Shred the Chicken: If not already shredded, shred cooked chicken using two forks or your hands.
- Mix with Buffalo Sauce: In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, melted butter, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until the chicken is evenly coated.
Assemble the Sliders:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare Slider Buns: Slice the slider buns in half horizontally. Place the bottom halves in a greased baking dish.
- Add Chicken and Cheese: Spread the buffalo chicken mixture evenly over the bottom buns. Layer with cheese slices to cover the chicken.
- Top with Dressing: Drizzle ranch or blue cheese dressing over the cheese. Place the top halves of the buns on top.
Bake the Sliders:
- Brush with Butter: Lightly brush the top of the buns with melted butter for a golden finish.
- Bake: Cover the dish with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tops are golden brown.
Serve:
- Garnish: Sprinkle chopped green onions or parsley over the sliders.
- Serve Hot: Carefully separate the sliders and serve warm.
