Ingredients
  

For the Sliders
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts sliced horizontally into thin cutlets
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 8 slices thick-cut bacon cooked and crumbled
  • 12 slider buns Hawaiian rolls recommended
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 2 roma tomatoes thinly sliced
For the Honey Mustard Sauce
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 3 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp lemon juice freshly squeezed
For the Garlic Butter Topping
  • 3 tbsp butter melted
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

Equipment

  • 1 Large Skillet
  • 1 9x13 inch Baking Dish
  • 2 Mixing Bowls

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Season chicken cutlets with paprika, 1 tsp garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside. Let it rest for a few minutes before dicing into bite-sized pieces.
  3. In the same skillet, cook the bacon strips until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, then crumble or chop.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, and lemon juice to create the honey mustard sauce.
  5. Without separating the buns, slice the slab of slider rolls in half horizontally. Place the bottom half in a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  6. Spread about half of the honey mustard sauce over the bottom buns. Top with the diced chicken, followed by the crumbled bacon. Place the top half of the buns on top.
  7. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with the remaining 1/2 tsp of garlic powder. Brush this mixture over the tops of the slider buns.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and the sliders are warmed through.
  9. Carefully remove from the oven. Lift the top buns and add the lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and the remaining honey mustard sauce. Serve immediately.

Notes

Make-Ahead Tip: You can cook the chicken and bacon and mix the sauce up to 2 days in advance. Store everything in airtight containers in the refrigerator until you're ready to assemble.
Cheese Please: Add a layer of provolone or Swiss cheese on top of the bacon before baking for an extra gooey, delicious slider.
Storage: Store leftover sliders in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to maintain crispiness.
