Description
Chicken nuggets smothered in marinara sauce and melting cheese on buttery Hawaiian rolls make these Easy Chicken Parmesan Sliders the perfect solution to feeding a crowd deliciously.
Ingredients
- 12 larger frozen chicken nuggets
- 12 Hawaiian sweet rolls
- 1 cup thick marinara sauce (or pizza sauce)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella and parmesan cheese blend (or any Italian cheese blend with mozzarella and parmesan in it)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Cook chicken nuggets according to package directions.
- Remove and heat oven to 350°F.
- Slice sweet rolls in half and place them a few inches apart on a parchment-lined sheet pan.
- Open each roll so the insides are facing up. Spread a thin layer of sauce on the inside of the bottom half and top half of each roll.
- Place a cooked chicken nugget on the bottom half of each roll. Top each chicken nugget with a little sauce and then a heaping tablespoon of the shredded cheese blend.
- Place the top halves of each roll back on top so that it sits evenly over the cheese on the chicken nugget.
- Melt the butter in a small bowl. Whisk in the garlic salt and Italian seasoning.
- Brush the top of each roll generously with the seasoned butter mixture.
- Bake on the middle rack of the oven until the cheese is melted and the rolls are starting to toast on top, about 10-15 minutes.
Notes
Note: If you can only find smaller chicken nuggets, place two on each roll so the bottom half of the roll is mostly covered in chicken nugget.
