Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pack (12 count) Hawaiian sweet rolls
  • 3 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce
  • 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack or Cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13 inch baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Using a long serrated knife, slice the entire slab of Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally so you have a top half and a bottom half. Place the bottom half into the prepared baking dish.
  3. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken and the BBQ sauce. Stir until every piece of chicken is evenly coated in the sauce.
  4. Spread the BBQ chicken mixture evenly over the bottom half of the rolls. Top the chicken with the thinly sliced red onions and then sprinkle the shredded cheese generously over the top.
  5. Place the top half of the rolls back onto the cheese layer. Press down slightly to make sure the sliders stay compact during the baking process.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, garlic powder, dried parsley, and honey. Use a pastry brush to coat the tops of the rolls thoroughly with the butter mixture.
  7. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tops of the rolls are golden brown and slightly crisp.
  8. Remove from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. Use a sharp knife to cut between the rolls into individual sliders and serve immediately.
