Chicken Bacon Ranch Sliders 

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a baking dish or sheet by lightly greasing it.

Step 2: Mix the Filling

1. In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, crumbled bacon, ranch dressing, and shredded cheese. Mix until everything is well coated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 3: Assemble the Sliders

1. Slice the slider buns in half horizontally, keeping them attached. Place the bottom half of the buns in the prepared baking dish.
2. Spoon the chicken and bacon mixture evenly over the bottom half of the buns. Top with the other half of the buns.

Step 4: Prepare the Topping

1. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, garlic powder, and onion powder. Brush this mixture over the top of the buns to enhance flavor and create a golden crust.

Step 5: Bake

1. Cover the sliders with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
2. After 15 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.

Step 6: Serve

1. Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Slice the sliders along the seams, and serve warm.
2. Garnish with chopped green onions or parsley if desired.

Serving Suggestions

Chicken Bacon Ranch Sliders are fantastic on their own but can be served with a variety of sides to complete the meal. Pair them with crispy potato wedges, a fresh garden salad, or veggie sticks with ranch dip for a balanced spread. They also make a perfect addition to any game day or party platter!

Tips for Success

• Make Ahead: You can prepare the chicken and bacon mixture ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator until you’re ready to assemble and bake the sliders.
• Freezing Option: These sliders can also be frozen before baking. Just wrap them tightly in foil and freeze for up to 2 months. When you’re ready to enjoy, simply bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
• Additions: Feel free to mix in other ingredients like diced jalapeños for heat, or sautéed bell peppers for added flavor and texture.
