HOW TO MAKE CHICKEN BACON RANCH SLIDERS, STEP BY STEP:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a small bowl add the butter, parsley, parmesan, dry ranch seasoning, garlic powder, and dried dill. Whisk until everything is combined, set aside.
- Place the bottom of the Hawaiian rolls on a 9×13-inch baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Using a pastry brush the ranch on both halves of the cut side of the rolls.
- To the bottom half of the rolls add the chicken, bacon, and cheese in that order.
- Place the tops of the Hawaiian rolls on top of the sandwiches.
- Brush the top of the rolls with the butter mixture.
- Place an aluminum foil over the top and place in oven.

- You can remove the foil and bake an additional 5-10 minutes to crisp up the top if desired.
- Remove from the oven, cut, and enjoy.
CAN I USE ANOTHER CHEESE?
Absolutely, we use cheddar as we feel that is is a nice cheese that goes with so many things.
Other cheese that can be use includes: Monterey Jack, Colby Jack, Provolone, Gouda, Pepper Jack, etc.
You can also use sliced cheese instead of shredded for this. To get the optimal melting, use freshly shredded cheese.
WILL ROTISSERIE CHICKEN WORK?
Yes! If you want to grab a chicken from the hot section of your grocer, rotisserie will work wonderfully.
If you have a kitchen scale, it will be best to measure the chicken out after you shred it off the bone to get your pound.
This will also make the sliders a little thicker and add a little more juiciness to them.
CAN I USE BACON BITS?
If you do not want to use regular bacon, you can use bacon bits but make sure that you are using the real bacon bits.
You can use as much or as little as you’d like, but when it comes to bacon we always think more the better.
DO I HAVE TO USE HAWAIIAN ROLLS?
If you are not a fan of the sweetness of the Hawaiian rolls, you can use any of your favorite slider buns for these.
We love the sweetness from the rolls when we make sliders, but they are absolutely easy to substitute out.
HOW TO STORE:
These can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator where they will keep for up to 4-5 days.
To reheat, cover with foil and place in the oven and bake at 350 degrees F until heated through.
We do not recommend freezing this recipe.
