Course Dinner, Main Course Cuisine American Keyword Chicken Bacon Ranch Sliders Prep Time 15 minutes minutes Cook Time 35 minutes minutes Total Time 50 minutes minutes Servings 12 sliders Chelsea Lords Calories 364kcal Author Chelsea Lords Cost $12.13 Ingredients▢ 12-count package Hawaiian rolls (Note 1)▢ 3 cups shredded/chopped rotisserie chicken▢ ½ cup good ranch dressing,, plus more for dipping▢ 12 slices sharp Cheddar OR Colby jack cheese▢ 8 slices microwave bacon, cooked and crumbled (~1/2 cup)▢ 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan, optional▢ 1 stick (7 tbsp) herb butter (Note 2) InstructionsPREP: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan. Without separating them, slice the slab of rolls horizontally into two halves (See Note 1). Melt the butter; let cool.CHICKEN: Mix chicken with ranch dressing until well coated.BRUSH ON BUTTER: Place the bottom half of the rolls in the prepared pan. Brush 2½ tablespoons of melted butter onto the cut sides of both the top and bottom halves of the rolls. ASSEMBLE: Place bottom half of rolls in prepared pan. Layer half of the cheese over the rolls. Evenly distribute the saucy chicken over the cheese. Sprinkle bacon evenly on top. Top with the remaining cheese. Bake this arrangement (without the top half of the rolls) for 10 minutes.BAKE AGAIN: Remove from the oven and add the top slab of rolls. Use a pastry brush to spread the remaining butter mostly on the top of the rolls, but also a bit all over the sides. Cover the pan with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for another 5-10 minutes, or until the top is golden brown, and the cheese is completely melted.ENJOY: Serve hot, cutting into individual sliders. Enjoy with extra ranch for dipping if desired! Video Recipe NotesNote 1: Rolls: Keep the rolls intact and slice in half horizontally: Note 2: Butter: Nothing beats this amazing Kerrygold® garlic butter (so delicious and helps cut down on ingredients needed!). However, a homemade blend of 7 tablespoons butter mixed with 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, plus salt & pepper to taste will do the trick.
