    Shredded Buffalo Chicken Sliders

    These Shredded Buffalo Chicken Sliders are SO delicious and SO EASY to make… I can assure you they’ll be a hit!

    This is just about as easy as it gets when making buffalo chicken sliders.  I had some leftover shredded chicken from the rotisserie chicken I used to make Barbecue Chicken Nachos earlier this week.  Have I expressed enough how much I love the convenience of grocery store rotisserie chicken?!

    It all starts out with a simple concoction of buffalo sauce heated in a sauce pan with a little butter, honey and seasonings.  Toss the shredded chicken in the sauce to coat evenly, place on your slider buns, then top with ranch dressing and crumbled blue cheese.  Oh, and a pickle slice.  Because I LOVE pickles!  🙂

    These are so simple (and delicious!).  These sliders make a perfect appetizer or meal and they come together CRAZY FAST when you use the meat from a rotisserie chicken.  You can also cook chicken breasts in your slow cooker (3-4 hours on high or 7-8 hours on low) and shred them – still easy!

     This recipe makes 12 generous sliders that are full of robust flavor and so simple to make.  Enjoy!

      I love trying all kinds of sliders, especially buffalo chicken ones! I’ve probably googled them all! I just tried the ones from Ohsodelicioso and I liked the idea they had about baking them. It worked really well with Hawaiian rolls. Do you ever bake yours, or stick to the method you have here?
