Ingredients

Scale

Slider Assembly

  • 12 slider buns
  • 12 frozen chicken patties
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • Fresh basil, for garnish

Butter Topping

  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Bake chicken patties: Arrange the frozen chicken patties on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes until heated through and lightly browned. Remove them from the oven and place on a plate.
  3. Assemble the sliders: Place the bottom halves of the slider buns on the baking sheet. On each bun, place one chicken patty, then spoon 1 to 2 tablespoons of marinara sauce over the patty. Sprinkle mozzarella and parmesan cheeses evenly on top, then add the top half of the bun to complete each slider.
  4. Prepare the butter topping: In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, garlic salt, and onion powder until well combined. Drizzle this mixture evenly over the assembled sliders, letting the butter drip down the sides of the buns for added flavor and moisture.
  5. Bake the sliders: Place the assembled sliders back into the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Around the 15-minute mark, check the buns; if the tops are golden brown, cover loosely with foil to prevent burning and continue baking for the remaining time to fully melt the cheese and warm the sauce.
  6. Garnish and serve: Remove sliders from the oven and garnish with fresh basil leaves for a burst of color and freshness. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use frozen chicken patties for convenience, or substitute with homemade breaded chicken for a fresher option.
  • Adjust the amount of marinara and cheese to your preference for saucier or cheesier sliders.
  • Covering the sliders with foil after the buns brown prevents burning while ensuring cheese melts perfectly.
  • Fresh basil adds a nice aromatic touch but can be omitted if unavailable.
  • These sliders are best served immediately for the best texture of the buns and cheese.
