Need a surefire dinner for hectic nights? This recipe for BBQ Chicken Sliders is perfect! It’s quicker than takeout and tastes much better. Only 3 ingredients are needed: chopped chicken, BBQ sauce, and mini buns. I love to make it ahead and keep it in the fridge for times when I’m so frazzled and fried, cooking is simply not an option!
Starting with pre-cooked chicken helps the sliders come together easily. (I bulk cook, shred into strips, and separate into meal-sized portions.) If you don’t have anything on hand, use a store-bought rotisserie.
BBQ Chicken Sliders are so foolproof, a detailed recipe isn’t needed. Just combine 2-3 pieces of chicken with enough sauce to coat, then stuff into a dozen mini buns. If you want to get fancy, add some coleslaw on top. (I didn’t have any, so I skipped it, but it’s great either way.)
I prefer plain buns, but I know a lot of people that are crazy about King’s Hawaiian brand. If you like a sweeter taste, try those. Otherwise, any old bun will do.
With adequate sides, that should be enough for the whole family. Sweet potatoes, cucumber spears, and chips make a perfect combination. Kids seem to really love anything mini, so if you have picky eaters, I’d try this.
Fast, easy, good!
These would be perfect for the big game day thanks for sharing.
OMG, I hadn’t even thought of that! We had chips, dip, salsa, and wings. Next time, I’ll make BBQ sandwiches.
I do like the King’s Hawaiian bread on certain things but I think a plain one for these would be good.
I also prefer the plain rolls. I think it depends if you like a sweet bread or not.
I love to eat chicken sandwiches. My kids love chicken.
