BUFFALO CHICKEN SLIDERS RECIPE BY TASTY



Buffalo Chicken Sliders Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: dinner rolls, shredded mozzarella cheese, rotisserie chicken, hot sauce, ranch dressing, butter

Provided by Scott Loitsch

Categories     Appetizers

Yield 12 sliders

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 rolls dinner rolls, 1 pack
1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
3 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded
¾ cup hot sauce
½ cup ranch dressing
2 tablespoons butter, melted

Steps:

  • Carefully slice the pack of dinner rolls in half, being sure to keep the rolls connected as a single units as they are split into tops and bottoms.
  • Remove the top and place the bottom section in a 9x12 inch (23x30 cm) baking dish.
  • Sprinkle the bottom with about 1 cup (100 g) of the shredded mozzarella cheese (make sure it is evenly coated as this will act as a barrier between the sauce and the bread, preventing the rolls from getting soggy).
  • Top the cheese with the shredded rotisserie chicken. Drizzle the hot sauce and ranch dressing evenly over the chicken and spread out evenly with a spoon. Top with remaining mozzarella cheese.
  • Place the top half of the rolls on top and brush evenly with melted butter.
  • Bake in a preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is melty and the rolls have heated through.
  • Remove from oven, cool slightly before transferring to a cutting board.
  • Using a large knife, follow the lines of the rolls, cutting them into 12 individual sliders.
  • Enjoy!

Time 20m

Yield 12 sliders

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1 cup hot sauce, such as Frank's Red Hot
12 small rolls, such as Hawaiian or Parker House rolls, buttered and griddled

4 chicken thighs, boneless, skinless, cut in half
1 -2 teaspoon olive oil
1/2-1 teaspoon cajun seasoning
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup hot sauce
1/2 cup Greek yogurt, non-fat
1/4 cup chives, snipped
1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1/2 lemon, juice of
8 dinner rolls, slider size (I used Sourdough Dinner Rolls)
3 -4 leaves lettuce, shredded

Steps:

Tips:

  • Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts for easy preparation and to ensure even cooking.
  • Marinate the chicken in buffalo sauce for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, for maximum flavor.
  • Grill the chicken breasts over medium heat to prevent burning and to allow the chicken to cook through.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) before removing it from the grill.
  • Toast the slider buns before assembling the sliders to give them a crispy texture.
  • Top the sliders with your favorite toppings, such as blue cheese dressing, ranch dressing, shredded lettuce, and tomato slices.
  • Serve the sliders immediately while the chicken is still hot and juicy.
