Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package (12 rolls) King’s Hawaiian Sweet Rolls
- 2 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
- 8 slices bacon, cooked until crispy and chopped
- 1 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoon maple syrup
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 tablespoon butter, melted
- 2 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked chicken, chopped bacon, shredded cheese, mayonnaise, 2 tablespoon of maple syrup, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix everything together until the ingredients are evenly distributed and the mixture is well-combined.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. This temperature will ensure the sliders bake to perfection.
- Without separating the rolls, slice the entire sheet of Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally. Place the bottom half of the rolls in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, creating a sturdy base for the sliders.
- Spread the chicken and bacon mixture evenly over the bottom layer of rolls. Carefully place the top half of the rolls over the filling, creating a sandwich-like structure.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, 2 tablespoon of maple syrup, and garlic powder. Brush this delectable maple butter generously over the top of the rolls.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, or until the tops of the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Once the Maple Chicken Bacon Sliders are out of the oven, let them cool for 2 to 3 minutes. Slice the rolls into individual sliders and serve them warm.
Notes
Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as pepper jack or Swiss, to add your own twist to the flavor profile. For a healthier option, you can use rotisserie chicken or grilled chicken instead of cooked chicken breast.
