Buffalo Chicken Sliders
Buffalo Chicken Sliders are a delicious hand-held version of buffalo chicken dip with spicy sauce, melty cheese, and creamy ranch.
Equipment
- baking dish
- oven
- mixing bowl
- serrated knife
Ingredients
Chicken and Sauce
- 1 whole rotisserie chicken, shredded (about 3-4 cups shredded chicken)
- ½ cup buffalo wing sauce
- ½ cup ranch dressing
- 1 teaspoon cajun seasoning
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
Buns and Cheese
- 2 packages King's Hawaiian rolls (12 count each)
- 8 ounces shredded monterey jack cheese
Topping
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a large baking dish or a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Set aside.
- Place the shredded chicken in a bowl. Add the buffalo sauce, ranch dressing, cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix to combine.
- Do not pull the rolls apart; simply use a large serrated knife to slice the rolls in half as you would slice a bagel, separating the tops from the bottoms. Place the layer of bottoms into the prepared baking pan, cut side up.
- Sprinkle half of the cheese evenly across the rolls and top evenly with the chicken mixture. Top with the remaining cheese. Place the tops of the rolls on top.
- In a small bowl, stir together the melted butter and Italian seasoning. Brush over the tops of the sliders.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the tops are slightly browned.
- If desired, serve with coleslaw on the sliders or on the side.
Notes
You may use 2 (9 count) packages of King’s Hawaiian slider buns in place of the rolls if desired. You may prepare the buffalo chicken mixture up to 3 days ahead of time and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator until you're ready to assemble the sliders.
