Prep: 10 min · Cook: 15 min · Yield: 12 · Method: Oven
Ingredients
- 12 slider buns
- 3 cups shredded cooked chicken
- 0.5 cup buffalo sauce
- 1.5 cups mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 0.5 cup ranch dressing
Cooking instructions
- Heat the oven to 350°F. Without separating the individual rolls, slice the slider buns horizontally to create a top and bottom layer. Place the bottom half in a lightly greased 9-by-13-inch baking dish. (about 5 min) — 350°F
- Stir the shredded chicken and buffalo sauce together until evenly coated. Spread the sauced chicken over the bun bottoms, then layer the mozzarella evenly on top. (about 3 min)
- Place the bun tops over the cheese. Melt the butter and brush it evenly over the tops. (about 2 min)
- Bake uncovered for 15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the buns are warmed through. If using leftover chicken, verify it reaches 165°F before serving. (about 15 min) — 350°F
- Separate the sliders, serve warm, and pass the ranch dressing for dipping. (about 1 min)
