Steps:
- Shred chicken finely, and combine with barbecue sauce and honey in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Cover and heat in microwave for about 4 minutes or until hot, stopping to stir after about 2 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat oven per package directions for rolls.
- Slice rolls horizontally into 2 large pieces with a large serrated bread knife. (Do not separate into individual rolls.).
- Replace top of roll and heat in oven per package directions.
- Remove from oven, remove top of roll and spread hot chicken mixture over bottom roll.
- Place the pickle slices evenly over the chicken, then replace roll top.
- Cut carefully into individual rolls, and serve.
- I find this method easier than trying to fill each roll individually.
- Makes 12 appetizer servings or 4 main dish servings.
Tips:
- Choose the right chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are best for this recipe, as they cook quickly and evenly. You can also use a whole chicken, but you will need to remove the bones and skin before cooking.
- Use a flavorful marinade. The marinade is what gives the chicken its flavor, so be sure to use one that you like. The recipe provided in the article uses a simple combination of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs, but you can also experiment with other flavors, such as honey, brown sugar, or barbecue sauce.
- Cook the chicken thoroughly. Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure that it is safe to eat. You can use a meat thermometer to check the temperature of the chicken.
- Serve the chicken sliders on toasted buns. Toasted buns will help to hold the sliders together and prevent them from becoming soggy. You can also add your favorite toppings, such as cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onion.
Conclusion:
BBQ chicken sliders are a quick and easy meal that is perfect for parties or potlucks. They are also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make delicious BBQ chicken sliders that everyone will love.
