Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons butter, divided
- 1 standard package (12oz) Hawaiian rolls
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cooked & shredded
- 2/3 cup buffalo sauce (homemade or store-bought)
- 2 celery stalks, chopped
- 1/4 cup green onion, sliced
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 10 slices (7oz) provolone cheese
- serving suggestion: blue cheese dressing or ranch dressing for dipping
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a deep baking dish with parchment paper, option to leave some hanging over the sides to easily remove the sliders after baking.
- Prep Buns: Remove the rolls from the packaging, being careful to not break them apart. Now use a large serrated knife to cut horizontally down the middle of the rolls, keeping them all together. You will now have all the tops in one piece and the bottoms in one piece. Evenly spread 1 tablespoon of butter on the bottom rolls. Place them in the parchment-lined pan.
- Chicken Mixture: Put the shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, celery, green onion and salt in a large bowl. Mix to fully combine. Now spread this mixture evenly on the buttered bottom rolls.
- Cheese: Evenly layer the slices of cheese on the chicken mixture.
- Top Buns: Place the top section of the rolls on top of the cheese. Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in the microwave. Using a basting brush, lightly brush melted butter on top of the rolls.
- Bake: Place aluminum foil on top of the baking dish and tightly cover. Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes (if you want the rolls a bit more crispy, remove foil for last 5 minutes – for softer rolls, keep foil on the entire time).
- Serve: Let cool slightly and then lift the parchment paper to remove the sliders. Cut into individual sliders and serve with blue cheese dressing or ranch dressing for dipping!
Notes
- Buffalo Sauce: highly recommend making our homemade buffalo sauce, but if you are short on time we also love Primal Kitchen’s Buffalo Sauce.
- Prep Ahead of Time: the chicken mixture could easily be prepped ahead of time, stored in an airtight container in the fridge, and then just assemble and bake the sliders when ready.
