Ingredients
  

  • 1 (12-ounce) package Hawaiian sweet dinner rolls such as King’s Hawaiian
  • 3 cups shredded chicken breast about 8 ounces cooked; see How to Cook Shredded Chicken
  • ¾ cup hot sauce such as Frank’s RedHot or Frank's Buffalo
  • ¼ cup ranch dressing I use a Greek-yogurt based
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella provolone, or Havarti cheese, divided
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Instructions
 

  • Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Without disconnecting the buns at their sides, slice the slider buns in half horizontally. Place the bottom half in the center of the baking sheet.

  • Bake the Buffalo chicken sliders until the cheese is melty and the tops are golden, about 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let cool a few minutes. Carefully slice apart with a serrated knife, and serve.

Notes

  • TO STORE: Wrap leftover sliders in foil and store them in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days.
  • TO FREEZE: Wrap the sliders in a layer of plastic wrap, followed by foil (or toss them in an airtight container or freezer bag); double layers help prevent freezer burn! Freeze for up to 2 months and thaw in the refrigerator before reheating.
  • TO REHEAT: Warm up leftovers in the microwave or a 350ºF oven until heated through.
