Description

These Chicken Parmesan Sliders are everything you love about the classic Italian dish—packed into a bite-sized, pull-apart sandwich. Juicy chicken, melty mozzarella, rich marinara, and buttery parmesan topping come together in warm slider buns. Perfect for game day, family dinners, or casual entertaining.


Ingredients

Scale

2.5 lbs chicken breast tenderloins, cooked and seasoned

1 (15 oz) package slider buns

1¼ cups marinara sauce

6 slices mozzarella cheese

¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

½ teaspoon garlic salt

1½ teaspoons dried parsley

1½ tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Optional Twists:

Bread and pan-fry the chicken for a crispy texture

Add fresh basil or a pinch of red pepper flakes

Use provolone or fontina for a cheese swap

Toast the buns slightly before assembling for added crunch


Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

Slice the slider buns in half horizontally, keeping tops and bottoms connected. Place bottom halves in the dish.

Layer cooked chicken evenly over the buns. Spoon marinara sauce on top.

Add mozzarella slices evenly over the sauce.

Place the bun tops back on.

In a small bowl, mix melted butter, garlic salt, parsley, and Parmesan. Brush this mixture generously over the tops of the buns.

Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 5–7 minutes until the tops are golden and cheese is melted.

Let cool slightly, then slice and serve warm.
