Prep Time:5 minutes
Cook Time:15 minutes
Total Time:20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 24 oz bag of crispy boneless chicken bites or your favorite frozen chicken nuggets/bites
  • 12 count Hawaiian rolls
  • 1/4 cup of mayo
  • 1 tsp of garlic powder
  • 3 tbsp of unsalted butter melted
  • 1/4 cup of honey
  • 2 tbsp of franks red hot hot sauce
  • 1 tsp of paprika
  • 1 tsp of cayenne powder
  • 16 oz jar of pickle chips

Instructions

  • Cook the chicken bites in the air fryer or oven according to the package. Take the slider buns and slice them whole from the side. Remove the top layer and set aside. Mix the mayo with the garlic powder and spread on the bottom of the buns. In a large bowl add the butter, honey, hot sauce, paprika and cayenne powder. Stir to mix.
  • Add the cooked chicken to the bowl and stir until the chicken is completely coated. Add the chicken all over the buns. Top with pickle slices all over.
  • Carefully cut each slider off. (Note you will probably cut some pickles and chicken, that’s okay!) Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days.
  • You can taste the sauce and see if you’d like to add more hot sauce or not.
  • You can assemble each slider separately if you’d like, I just find it easier and faster to do it this way.
  • You can use whatever hot sauce you’d like, I just think franks is perfect for this recipe.
