Number Of Ingredients 13

8 Hawaiian Rolls (cut in half)
4 Chicken Thighs (cut in half)
1/3 cup All-Purpose Flour
2 cups Corn Flakes (lightly crushed)
2 Eggs
1/4 cup Sour Cream
2 tsp Hot Sauce (I used Franks Red Hot)
1/4 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Black Pepper
1 cup Iceberg Lettuce (shredded)
Dill Pickle Slices (about 2 per slider)
1/2 cup Mayonnaise
1 tbsp Sriracha

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Mix sriracha aioli ingredients in a small bowl and place in the fridge for later.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a small bowl, whisk eggs, sour cream, hot sauce, salt, pepper. In another bowl, add crushed cornflakes.
  • Sprinkle chicken thighs generously with flour and coat both sides evenly.
  • Dip each piece of chicken into the egg mixture to coat both sides. Then, press directly into the cornflakes to fully coat both sides. Transfer coated chicken onto baking sheet. Repeat.
  • Bake chicken for 15 minutes, then carefully flip over and cook for another 15 minutes. Chicken juices should run clear and internal temperature should be 165 degrees. You can check this using a meat thermometer.
  • Lightly toast Hawaiian rolls or slider buns in a toaster oven or on a skillet.
  • To assemble sliders, spread sriracha aioli on both buns, then place shredded lettuce on bottom bun, followed by fried chicken and pickles. Enjoy!

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup whole-grain mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
Juice of 1/2 lemon
4 cups cold fried chicken, cut into large dice (5 to 8 pieces breasts and thighs)
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
3 stalks celery, diced
3 green onions, sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 croissants, split

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, mustard, Italian seasoning, cayenne and lemon juice. Add the chicken, parsley, celery and green onions, and toss to coat in the dressing. Season with salt and pepper. Let the chicken salad hang out for 30 minutes or so to allow the flavors to marry. Divide evenly among the croissants. Serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the overall flavor of the salad sliders.

  • Shred the chicken into small pieces: This will make it easier to eat on the sliders.
  • Use a flavorful dressing: The dressing is what will bring all of the flavors of the salad sliders together. Be sure to use a dressing that you enjoy.
  • Toast the slider buns: This will add a nice smoky flavor and make the buns more sturdy.
  • Load up the sliders with toppings: Don't be afraid to add your favorite toppings to the salad sliders. Some popular options include lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and cheese.
