Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 2 lbs chicken tenders (boneless chicken breasts and thighs work too)
  • 1 pack Hawaiian slider buns or dinner rolls
  • to taste Mayonnaise
  • 1 bottle Sweet Baby Rays Golden Mustard (honey mustard works as a substitute)
  • 8 strips bacon, cooked crisp
  • enough slices Colby jack cheese for the sandwiches
  • 1/2 head lettuce
  • 1/2 small red onion, sliced thin
  • 4-5 tablespoons oil (for marinade and cooking chicken)

Blackened Seasoning

  • 2 tablespoons smoked paprika (or regular)
  • 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

Butter Topping

  • 1/2 stick butter, softened
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Place the chicken tenders into a large zip-top bag or bowl. Add several tablespoons of blackened seasoning and a few tablespoons of oil. Mix to coat the chicken evenly.
  • Cook the chicken in an oiled skillet over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes per side, flipping just once.
  • While the chicken cooks, prepare the butter topping by mixing all ingredients in a small bowl. Heat for 30 seconds or until the butter melts, then stir to combine.
  • If needed, slice the sliders horizontally with a serrated knife. Place them cut side up on a baking sheet and toast under the broiler until golden brown, just a few minutes.

Assembly

  • Flip the top buns so the domed tops are facing up and leave them beside the bottom buns on the pan.
  • Assemble the sliders by adding a squeeze of mayo to all the bottom buns.
  • Place the cooked chicken on the bottom buns so each slider gets at least one chicken tender. Add a dollop of honey mustard, then place cheese over the chicken.
  • Spread the top buns with the butter mixture. Return the baking sheet to the broiler for another minute or two until the cheese softens and the top buns are slightly toasted.
  • Finally, top the sliders with bacon, tomatoes, red onion, lettuce, and another drizzle of honey mustard.
  • Place the top buns over the sandwiches, slice to separate them, and serve.

Notes

Best served warm, right from the oven. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving. Adjust cayenne pepper for spice preference.
