Everyone loves these Barbeque Chicken Sliders! These sliders are easy to put together and they taste fabulous! I especially love the flavors when it is topped with Creamy Apple Coleslaw.

Thes sliders were so easy and so convenient. I made the shredded chicken in the slow cooker, shredded it, and added the honey barbeque sauce and let it warm in the slow cooker while we went to watch soccer practice. After we got home, I prepared the sliders and warmed them in the oven. It was quick to put together and they were a hit!

Ingredients

The recipe uses shredded chicken. I put boneless skinless chicken breasts in the slow cooker for several hours and shredded it. But you could use rotisserie chicken or canned chicken.

The barbeque sauce ingredients are ketchup, honey, soy sauce, onion flakes, minced garlic, and pepper flakes. You can adjust the amount of heat in your barbeque sauce by adding more or less pepper flakes to go with the level of heat you’d prefer. Then it all gets whisked together.

Hawaiin rolls provides a wonder little bit of sweetness that really compliments the barbeque chicken flavors.

Cooking

You can cook it all in a slow cooker or in a medium saucepan on the stove. When we did it for soccer, I put it all in the slow cooker and let it cook for time we were watching soccer. We were only gone about 1 1/2 hours.

Great! Now it is time to assemble! Input the sliders in a 9×13 baking pan. I separated the rolls into rows of 3 buns then sliced them in half, added 1 quarter of the barbeque chicken to those three rolls and sliced cheese one top. Then repeat for the balance of the rolls.

Once all the rolls have been prepared and are in the pan melt some butter and brush the top of the rolls with it. It helps keep the top of the rolls moistened so they don’t dry out during the baking. I have forgotten it before, and they were OK, just the top bun flaked.

Loosely tent a piece of aluminum foil over the sliders and put them in the oven to warm up.

Serving

Once the Barbeque Chicken Sliders are warmed up and the cheese is melted, it’s time to top them with Creamy Apple Coleslaw. These two go together like peanut butter and jelly.

Some perfect sides to accompany these sliders is Mandarin Corn or Crispy Air Fried Potatoe Bites.

Happy Cooking!
