Introduction

Marry Me Chicken Sliders are a delicious twist on the classic chicken dish, served in convenient slider form. With a creamy Parmesan sauce and flavorful seasoning, these sliders are perfect for casual gatherings or a tasty weeknight treat.

Six small sandwiches are placed in a black tray on a white marbled surface. Each sandwich has a shiny, golden-brown top bun with black sesame seeds and finely chopped green herbs sprinkled on top. Inside the sandwiches, there are visible grilled patties with melted cheese that is slightly browned, resting on a layer of green leafy vegetables. The buns are soft and fluffy with a light color on the sides and bottoms. In the background, there are small bowls with white sauce and green leaves, slightly blurred.

Ingredients

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper, to taste
9-12 slider buns
Fresh spinach or arugula, for garnish
Sliced tomatoes, for garnish
Olive oil, for cooking

Instructions

Step 1: Season the chicken breasts evenly with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.
Step 2: Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and let rest.
Step 3: In the same skillet, pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and combined.
Step 4: When the chicken is cool enough to handle, slice into bite-sized pieces and return to the skillet with the sauce. Let it soak up the flavors for a few minutes.
Step 5: Slice the slider buns in half and toast lightly if desired. Place a generous spoonful of the chicken mixture on the bottom half of each bun.
Step 6: Add fresh spinach or arugula and sliced tomatoes on top of the chicken for a fresh crunch.
Step 7: Cover with the top half of the bun and secure with a toothpick if needed.
Step 8: Arrange sliders on a platter and serve immediately.

Tips & Variations

For a spicy kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce.
Swap the spinach or arugula with fresh basil or lettuce for different flavors.
Use mozzarella or provolone cheese instead of Parmesan for a milder taste.
Toast the buns with a little garlic butter to add extra flavor.

Storage

Store leftover chicken and sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Keep slider buns separate to avoid sogginess. Reheat the chicken mixture gently on the stove or in the microwave until warm, then assemble sliders before serving.

FAQs

Can I use chicken thighs instead of breasts?

Yes, boneless, skinless chicken thighs can be used for a juicier result. Adjust cooking time as needed to ensure they are fully cooked.

Can these sliders be made ahead of time?

You can prepare the chicken and sauce in advance and store separately. Assemble the sliders just before serving to keep the buns fresh and prevent them from becoming soggy.
