Ingredients
- 4 pieces of boneless, skinless chicken breasts weighing 4 ounces each
- Approximately ½ cup of buffalo wing sauce, with the option to add more according to preference
- 4 portions of LAND O LAKES® Deli American, each cut into four quarters
- 8 slider buns, sliced for convenience
- A total of 8 tablespoons of blue cheese salad dressing
- 1 rib of celery, sliced into thin sticks measuring 2 inches each
Step 1
Begin by cutting each chicken breast in half and then placing them in a spacious resealable plastic food bag. Use a meat mallet to gently flatten each piece to a thickness of about 1/2-inch, ensuring even cooking.
Step 2
Next, pour your preferred amount of flavorful buffalo wing sauce into the bag with the chicken and securely seal it. Give the bag a gentle shake to coat the chicken evenly before refrigerating it for a minimum of 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 3
While the chicken marinates, preheat your gas or charcoal grill until the coals are glowing white with heat. This will ensure a perfect sear and juicy interior for the chicken.
Step 4
Once the grill is ready, remove the chicken from the marinade, discarding any excess sauce. Place the chicken on the grill and cook, flipping once, for about 10-12 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit and there is no pinkness in the center. For an extra kick of flavor, brush the chicken with more buffalo wing sauce while it cooks and top each piece with two quarters of cheese during the last minute of grilling.
Step 5
As the chicken finishes cooking, place the buns, cut-side down, on the grill to toast them for 1-2 minutes, adding a delightful crunch to each bite.
Step 6
To assemble the sandwiches, spread a generous amount of dressing on the toasted bun halves. Layer celery sticks and the grilled chicken on the bottom halves of the buns before topping them with the remaining bun halves. This will create a delicious sandwich bursting with flavor and textures.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Keep it Fresh : Store leftover buffalo chicken sliders in an airtight container in the refrigerator to ensure they stay fresh and flavorful.
- 2. Freeze for Later : If you won't be able to finish the sliders within a few days, consider freezing them. Wrap them individually in plastic wrap and then store in a resealable freezer bag. They'll be ready for a quick and delicious meal whenever you're craving.
