Description
These spicy buffalo chicken sliders are cheesy, messy, and perfect for game nights or parties, made with shredded chicken and topped with melty cheese.
Ingredients
- 12 slider buns (small dinner rolls)
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie or boiled and shredded)
- 1 cup Frank’s hot buffalo sauce (or your favorite buffalo sauce)
- 1 cup cheese (cheddar or mozzarella slices/shreds)
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (optional, for brushing tops)
- Optional toppings: ranch or blue cheese dressing, chopped celery, sliced green onions
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken with Frank’s hot buffalo sauce until evenly coated.
- Cut the slider buns in half and arrange the bottom halves on a baking sheet.
- Spoon the buffalo chicken mixture evenly over each bottom bun.
- Top with a slice or a handful of shredded cheddar or mozzarella.
- Place the top halves of the buns over the cheese.
- (Optional) Brush the tops with melted butter for a shiny finish.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes until the cheese is melted and buns are golden.
- Serve hot with ranch or blue cheese dressing and celery sticks.
Notes
Use rotisserie chicken to cut prep time. Swap Frank’s for a milder buffalo wing sauce, or mix in honey for sweet-heat balance. For dairy-free, use vegan cheese and oil instead of butter.
