For the Chicken
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
For the Honey Mustard Sauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
For Assembly
- 8 slider buns
- 4 slices of cheese (such as cheddar or Swiss)
- Cook the chicken: Cook the chicken breasts or thighs thoroughly on a stovetop, grill, or oven until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C), approximately 10-15 minutes depending on thickness. Let it rest for a few minutes and then slice or shred the chicken.
- Prepare the honey mustard sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the honey and Dijon mustard until well combined to create a smooth sauce.
- Coat the chicken: Toss the sliced or shredded chicken in the honey mustard sauce until evenly coated, ensuring every piece has a nice glaze.
- Assemble the sliders: Place a portion of the coated chicken onto the bottom half of each slider bun, add a slice of cheese on top, then cover with the bun tops. Optionally, warm the sliders briefly to melt the cheese before serving.
Notes
- You can use grilled or rotisserie chicken as a shortcut.
- Cheese options like cheddar, Swiss, or provolone work well.
- Warm the sliders briefly in the oven at 350°F for 5 minutes to melt the cheese.
- Great served with pickles or crispy fries on the side.
