Easy Chicken Parmesan Sliders (Made with Hawaiian Rolls)

12 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 (12 pack) Hawaiian rolls
  • 12 frozen chicken nuggets or tenders ((*read notes below))
  • 1 cup marinara or pasta sauce
  • 6 slices mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup butter ((plus more for greasing the dish))
  • 2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

Directions

  1. 1

    Cook the chicken according to the package directions; set aside.

  2. 2

    Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and butter the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish.

  3. 3

    Cut the Hawaiian rolls horizontally in half without separating the rolls; place the bottoms into your prepared dish and bake for about 3 minutes (just enough to toast the bread a bit).

  4. 4

    Place a precooked chicken nugget onto each one of the bottom pieces and then top with the marinara followed by the mozzarella cheese and top halves of the rolls.

  5. 5

    Melt the butter in the microwave and mix with the garlic powder and Italian seasoning; brush the mixture evenly over the top of the rolls. Sprinkle the grated parmesan over top.

  6. 6

    Cover your dish with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Uncover, and bake for an additional 3-5 minutes or until the buns turn golden brown.

  7. 7

    Remove from the oven and allow them to cool on the counter for about 5 minutes. They should pull apart easily, but you can also cut them at the seperation lines with a sharp spatula or knife if that's easier.

  8. 8

    Serve alone or with additional marinara for dipping.
