Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings.

For the chicken:
  •   1.5 lbs chicken breast or thighs
  •   1 cup buttermilk
  •   1 cup all-purpose flour
  •   1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  •   1 tsp paprika
  •   1 tsp garlic powder
  •   1 tsp salt
  •   1/2 tsp black pepper
  •   vegetable oil (for frying)
For the honey butter glaze
  •   1/2 cup unsalted butter
  •   1/3 cup honey
  •   1 tsp hot sauce (optional)
For assembling sliders
  •   12 slices hawaiian rolls
  •   6 slices cheddar cheese (halved)
  •   dill pickle chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Marinate chicken: In a bowl, combine chicken pieces and buttermilk. Chill 30 min to 2 hrs.

  2. Prep coating: Mix flour, panko, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish.

  3. Fry chicken: Heat oil to 350°F. Dredge marinated chicken in coating, fry until golden and cooked through (165°F internal), 4–5 min per side. Drain on paper towels.

  4. Make honey butter: In a small saucepan, melt butter, stir in honey and hot sauce until smooth.

  5. Assemble sliders: Slice Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally. Place cheese on bottom halves, add chicken, drizzle with honey butter, top with pickles (if using).

  6. Serve immediately while warm and gooey.

AI Tips

  • For a shortcut, use frozen breaded chicken tenders and focus on making the honey butter from scratch.

  • Add extra hot sauce to the honey butter for a spicy kick.
