Ingredients

Scale

For the Chicken Mixture

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breasts or thighs, shredded
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning mix
  • 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 2 green onions, chopped

For Assembly

  • 12 slider buns, sliced in half

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Start by cooking your chicken breasts or thighs until fully done, either by baking or boiling. Once cooked, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces to create the perfect base for your sliders.
  2. Mix the Creamy Filling: In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken with softened cream cheese, ranch seasoning, and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix thoroughly so each bite is packed with cheesy, creamy flavor.
  3. Add Bacon and Green Onions: Fold in crispy bacon bits and chopped green onions to the chicken mixture. This adds crunchiness, freshness, and a touch of smoky goodness that enhances the overall flavor.
  4. Assemble the Sliders: Slice the slider buns in half and spoon generous portions of the chicken mixture onto the bottom halves. Then place the tops back on to complete each slider perfectly.
  5. Optional Baking: For melted cheese and slightly toasted buns, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the assembled sliders for 5-7 minutes until golden and gooey. Remove and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use shredded rotisserie chicken to save time.
  • Warm sliders slightly before serving to melt the cheese and soften buns.
  • Try turkey bacon or smoked sausage as a bacon alternative.
  • Don’t skip the green onions for a fresh touch.
  • Make smaller sliders for parties to allow guests to sample multiple snacks.
