Ingredients
  

For the Sliders
  • 12 Hawaiian sweet rolls Such as King's Hawaiian
  • 3 cups shredded cooked chicken A rotisserie chicken works perfectly
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce Such as Frank's RedHot
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing Use blue cheese dressing if preferred
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar jack cheese Divided
  • 6 slices provolone cheese
For the Butter Topping
  • 1/4 cup salted butter Melted
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp dried parsley

Equipment

  • 1 9x13 inch Baking Dish
  • 1 Mixing Bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, ranch dressing, and 1/2 cup of the shredded cheddar jack cheese. Stir until everything is well combined.
  3. Without pulling the rolls apart, slice the entire slab of rolls in half horizontally. Place the bottom half in the prepared baking dish. Spread the buffalo chicken mixture evenly over the rolls. Top with the provolone cheese slices and the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar jack cheese. Place the top half of the rolls on.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley. Brush the mixture evenly over the tops of the sliders. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
  5. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
