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!

BUFFALO CHICKEN SANDWICHES



Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches image

Forget about the fast food fried chicken sandwich wars! We think our buffalo chicken sandwich beats them all. We fill it with fresh chicken, spicy buffalo sauce, a rich brioche bun and cool blue cheese dressing.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 large chicken cutlets (about 1 1/4 pounds total)
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup ranch dressing
1 1/2 ounces blue cheese, crumbled (about 1/3 cup)
1 cup self-rising flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup Buffalo-style hot sauce
Vegetable oil, for frying
4 brioche buns, split
2 cups shredded coleslaw mix
1/2 English cucumber, thinly sliced
Potato chips, for serving

Steps:

  • Place the chicken in a shallow bowl. Cover with the buttermilk, turning to coat. Combine the ranch dressing and blue cheese in a small bowl and refrigerate. On a large plate, stir together the flour and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Pour the Buffalo sauce into a shallow bowl. Line a large plate with a few layers of paper towels.
  • Add enough vegetable oil to a large skillet to come halfway up the sides. Heat over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350˚ F. Working in batches, remove the chicken from the buttermilk, letting the excess drip off, then coat in the flour mixture and shake off any excess. Carefully add the chicken to the hot oil and fry until dark golden brown and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to the paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  • As soon as the chicken is cool enough to handle, dip in the Buffalo sauce, coating it entirely. Place each chicken cutlet on a bun bottom and top with coleslaw and cucumber. Spread the bun tops with the blue cheese mixture and close the sandwiches. Serve with potato chips.

CREAMY BUFFALO CHICKEN SANDWICHES



Creamy Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches image

I threw this together one night with some leftover ingredients in the fridge. This is great with leftover grilled chicken or a rotisserie chicken. I HIGHLY recommend slightly overcooking your chicken while preparing this dish; BEFORE adding the wet ingredients. Sounds strange but its much better to have slightly dry chicken than moist! The toasted chicken will be more substantial with all of the wet ingredients in this dish! Also, I toast our hamburger buns to give it some substance as well....no one likes soggy buns!! My hubby loves this (and he is extremely picky) and requests this at least once a week! Enjoy!!

FRIED BUFFALO CHICKEN SANDWICHES



Fried Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches image

Deliciously tender and juicy fried chicken, piled high with veggies, a touch of heat from buffalo sauce, cooled down with ranch dressing. It all works together for a fabulous sandwich!

Provided by Rebekah Rose Hills

Time 2h50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 (8 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
⅔ cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon Buffalo sauce
1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ cup canola oil, or as needed
6 roll (blank)s hamburger buns
2 tablespoons Buffalo sauce, or to taste
½ cup sliced pickles
6 slices tomato
6 leaves lettuce, or more to taste
3 tablespoons ranch dressing, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Slice each chicken breast horizontally into 2 thin fillets. Place 6 fillets in a resealable zip-top bag with buttermilk, 1 tablespoon Buffalo sauce, and garlic powder. Seal the bag and shake to blend ingredients and evenly coat the chicken. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Combine flour, poultry seasoning, and pepper in a shallow dish or pie plate. Blend with a fork or whisk.
  • Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Dip chicken in the breading mixture until well and evenly coated on both sides. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Add enough oil to a large skillet so that it thickly coats the bottom and heat over medium-high heat until sizzling but not smoking. Place 2 chicken fillets in the skillet so they fit comfortably; do not overcrowd. Fry until crispy and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain chicken on paper towels and repeat twice, adding more oil as necessary, to fry remaining chicken. Transfer chicken to a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 8 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Remove chicken from oven. Place a chicken fillet on the bottom half of a bun. Add Buffalo sauce to taste. Top with pickle slices, tomato, and lettuce. Spread ranch dressing on the inside of the top bun and place over the sandwich. Repeat to make remaining sandwiches.
