Ingredients
Scale
Proteins:
- 1 rotisserie chicken, shredded
- 4 slices smoked provolone
Bread and Vegetables:
- 1 package Hawaiian rolls
- 1/4 cup sliced pickles
- 1 tomato, thinly sliced
- 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
Condiments and Seasonings:
- 3 tablespoons spicy mayo
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 garlic cloves, grated
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Carefully halve the hawaiian rolls lengthwise, maintaining their structural integrity while creating a sandwich base.
- Spread a generous layer of zesty chipotle mayonnaise across the bottom bread surface, ensuring even coverage.
- Distribute shredded rotisserie chicken uniformly over the mayo-coated bread, creating a substantial protein foundation.
- Sprinkle sharp cheddar cheese across the chicken layer, allowing for optimal melting potential.
- Scatter crisp, thinly sliced bell peppers and red onions to introduce vibrant texture and flavor complexity.
- Combine softened butter with minced fresh garlic, chopped parsley, and a pinch of kosher salt, creating an aromatic herb-infused spread.
- Place top bread halves gently over the assembled ingredients, creating compact slider sandwiches.
- Liberally brush the exterior of rolls with the garlic herb butter mixture, promoting golden browning and enhanced flavor.
- Position prepared sliders in a ceramic baking dish, covering with aluminum foil to retain moisture.
- Bake at 350°F for 20 minutes covered, then remove foil and bake additional 5-7 minutes until cheese melts and edges turn golden brown.
- Allow sliders to rest 3-4 minutes after removing from oven to stabilize internal temperature and enhance flavor melding.
Notes
- Swap rotisserie chicken with shredded turkey or pulled pork for variety and different flavor profiles.
- Use gluten-free rolls or lettuce wraps to make the sliders suitable for those with gluten sensitivities.
- Adjust cheese types like pepper jack or vegan cheese to accommodate different dietary preferences and add unique flavor dimensions.
- Customize vegetable toppings based on seasonal availability or personal taste, such as roasted bell peppers or pickled jalapeños for extra zest.
