Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (12 count) Hawaiian sweet rolls
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken works best)
  • 1 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce
  • 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella or Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • Optional: Thinly sliced red onions or pickled jalapeños

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking. Take the entire block of Hawaiian rolls and slice them in half horizontally so you have a top slab and a bottom slab.
  2. Step 2: Mix the BBQ Chicken: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken and the BBQ sauce. Stir well until all the chicken pieces are evenly coated in the sauce. If you like yours extra saucy, feel free to add an extra splash of BBQ sauce at this stage.
  3. Step 3: Layer the Sliders: Place the bottom half of the rolls into the prepared baking dish. Spread the BBQ chicken mixture evenly over the rolls. If you are using red onions or jalapeños, sprinkle them over the chicken now. Top everything with a generous layer of shredded cheese.
  4. Step 4: Top and Season: Place the top half of the rolls back onto the cheese layer. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley. Use a pastry brush to coat the tops of the rolls evenly with the garlic butter mixture.
  5. Step 5: Bake to Golden Perfection: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil. Bake for 10 minutes to melt the cheese. Remove the foil and bake for another 5 to 10 minutes, or until the tops of the rolls are golden brown and slightly crisp. Slice into individual sliders and serve immediately.
