2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce
1 clove garlic, grated
½ cup white onion, grated
nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
1 ½ cups shredded monterey jack cheese
4 medium jalapenoes, cut into 1/4 (6 mm)
1 package sweet slider buns
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
6 tablespoons stone ground mustard

1 cup shredded green cabbage
1 cup shredded red cabbage
2 medium carrots, shredded
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 ½ teaspoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, salt, pepper, paprika, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and onion. Mix well until evenly distributed.
  • Lightly grease a baking sheet with nonstick spray.

  • For the slaw, toss together the green and red cabbage and carrots in a medium bowl. Add the salt and rice vinegar and toss well.
  • Using a serrated knife, gently cut the slider buns in half to create a large top and bottom bun for the burger. Spread the bottom bun with the some of the sauce.
  • Using a spatula, transfer the burger patty to the bottom bun. Top with the slaw, drizzle with the remaining sauce, and cover with the top bun.
  • Make the glaze: In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, honey, and sesame seeds. Brush the glaze over the top bun.
  • Slice between each row of buns, creating 12 sliders.

SPICY JALAPEñO PHILLY CHEESE STEAK SLIDERS RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Spicy Jalapeño Philly Cheese Steak Sliders Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by á-25138

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (1.5-pound) beef chuck roast, shaved into thin slices (most grocery store butchers will do this for you)
2 green bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
1 large onion, sliced into thin rings
2 cloves garlic, minced
12-ounces Kraft Philadelphia Spicy Jalapeño Cream Cheese
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
8 slices provolone cheese
8 pretzel rolls or other roll of choice for slider buns
salt and pepper to taste
2 to 3 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Heat oven to broil. Slice pretzels rolls in half and lightly butter each side. Arrange on a baking sheet and set aside. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add bell pepper, onion, and garlic and sauté until golden and soft. Remove from pan and set aside. Melt another tablespoon or 2 of butter in the pan and add sliced beef separating slices. Season with salt and pepper to taste and cook until meat is browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Stir in jalapeño cream cheese. You can always add more or less depending on how cheesy you want it. Remove from heat. Place about 1/4 a cup of meat on the bottom half of each roll. Top with a spoonful of pepper and onion mix. Top with a slice of provolone cheese. Broil in the oven until the provolone is melted and buns are toasted. COOK'S NOTE: If you can't find the Spicy Jalapeño Cream Cheese, make your own mixing 12-ounces cream cheese with 1 to 2 tablespoons diced jalapeño, making as mild or as spicy as you'd like. Using finely sliced beef chuck roast makes the meat really tender and perfect for cheese steak sandwiches. Most grocery store butchers will slice it for you, just tell them you're making cheese steak sandwiches with it!

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are both good options for this recipe. If you're using breasts, pound them thin so they cook evenly.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the heat level. If you like things spicy, add more jalapeños or cayenne pepper. If you're not a fan of heat, reduce the amount of jalapeños or omit them altogether.
  • Make sure your chicken is cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit before you remove it from the heat.
  • Serve the sliders immediately. The chicken is best when it's hot and juicy. If you're making them ahead of time, reheat them gently before serving.

Conclusion:

Spicy jalapeño chicken sliders are a delicious and easy-to-make party food. They're perfect for game day, potlucks, or any other casual gathering. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a slider that's sure to please everyone.
