These chicken sliders are easy to make with a flat of dinner rolls, cooked chicken, bacon, and cheese. Make them for lunch or a party!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 flat of connected dinner rolls, such as King’s Hawaiian
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 to 1 teaspoon Sriracha, optional
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped or sliced cooked chicken breast
  • 6 strips bacon, cooked and diced or crumbled
  • Coleslaw or quick pickled onions, or use store-bought slaw or mild or hot pickled peppers
  • 1 cup (4 ounces) pepper jack cheese or plain cheddar
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter combined with a dash of garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 375 F
  2. Spray a large sheet of heavy-duty foil with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. Carefully slice the rolls in half horizontally.
  4. Place the bottom of the rolls on the prepared foil and set the top aside. Gently cut almost through the bottoms so they may be separated easily when they’re done.
  5. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise and Sriracha, if using. Spread over the rolls.
  6. Top the mayonnaise with chicken, and then the bacon.
  7. Top the bacon with about 2 teaspoons of slaw. Alternatively, top the slider squares some pickled onion or chile pepper.
  8. Sprinkle the pepper jack or cheddar cheese over all.
  9. Place the top of the rolls over the cheese layer.
  10. Brush the tops with the melted butter and garlic salt mixture.
  11. Bring the sides up over the rolls and seal. Crimp the ends together to seal.
  12. Place the foil package on a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Open the top of the foil and continue baking for 5 minutes.
