Ingredients

  • 9 dinner rolls
  • 1 lb shredded chicken*

Instructions

Notes

Shredded chicken:  We usually prepare our shredded chicken ahead of time to make these sliders as easy as possible. A night or two before Chicken Parm Sliders, we season our chicken with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper and bake at 375 for 12-15 minutes, or until cooked through. Then we shred the chicken while it's still warm, and let it cool before storing in an air-tight container in the fridge.
Note:  These sliders also make great leftover lunches! Simply reheat them in the oven at 350 for about 25-30 minutes.
