Ingredients

Scale

Slider Ingredients

  • 12 Kings Hawaiian rolls
  • 1 pound chicken tenders, cooked
  • ½ cup marinara sauce
  • 8 slices provolone cheese
  • 8 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
  • ¼ cup fresh basil, chopped

Butter Topping

  • ¼ cup (57g) butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 3 teaspoons garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the sliders.
  2. Slice Rolls: Carefully slice the Kings Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally. Place the bottom halves evenly in a prepared baking dish. Set the top halves aside for later.
  3. Assemble Sliders: Layer the bottom buns with 6 slices of provolone cheese, then add the cooked chicken tenders evenly on top. Spoon the marinara sauce over the chicken, then layer with sliced fresh mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle chopped fresh basil over the mozzarella.
  4. Top Buns: Place the reserved top halves of the rolls over the assembled layers to form complete sliders.
  5. Mix Butter Topping: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, sea salt, finely chopped fresh parsley, and grated parmesan cheese. Mix thoroughly to create the flavorful butter mixture.
  6. Brush Rolls: Generously brush the butter mixture over the tops of the rolls, ensuring all are evenly coated for a delicious golden crust.
  7. Cover and Bake: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, hot, and bubbly.
  8. Brown the Tops: Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 5 minutes, or until the tops of the sliders turn a golden brown color.
  9. Serve: Remove the sliders from the oven, slice as needed, and serve warm for a delightful meal or appetizer.

Notes

  • If you prefer spicier sliders, add some crushed red pepper flakes to the marinara or sprinkle on top before baking.
  • Use freshly cooked chicken tenders for the best texture, but rotisserie chicken can be a convenient substitute.
  • These sliders pair well with a side salad or crispy fries for a complete meal.
  • Allow the sliders to sit for a few minutes after baking to cool slightly and set before slicing.
  • For a lower-fat option, substitute part or all the butter with olive oil.
