Ingredients
– 6 slices fresh bacon
– 8 ounces cream cheese, cut into small pieces
– ΒΌ cup chicken broth
– 1 ounce ranch seasoning mix (1 packet)
– 2 cups cooked chicken, chopped or shredded
– 1 Β½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
– ΒΌ cup thinly sliced green onion
– 12 soft dinner rolls
– 2 tablespoons melted butter
– Β½ teaspoon minced garlic
– 1 teaspoon grated Parmesan cheese
– 1 tablespoon thinly sliced chives
Instructions
1-First, preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. Lay the bacon on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes until itβs crispy. Once done, remove it, let it cool, and then chop it up. Donβt forget to lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F afterward for the next steps.
2-Next, in a large pot over medium heat, combine the cream cheese, chicken broth, and ranch seasoning mix. Cook this mixture while whisking often until the cream cheese melts and everything is smooth. This step creates that creamy base youβll love in your sliders.
3-Now, add the chopped bacon, cooked chicken, Β½ cup shredded cheddar cheese, and green onions to the pot. Stir everything well to combine, making sure the flavors mix evenly. This is where the magic happens, blending creamy cheese and savory bacon into a delicious filling.
4-After that, cut the soft dinner rolls in half horizontally, keeping them together as sets. Place the bottom halves on a baking sheet and spread the chicken mixture evenly over them. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup cheddar cheese on top, then add the top halves of the rolls.
5-Finally, melt the butter and stir in the minced garlic. Brush this mixture on the tops of the rolls, and sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese and chives over them. Bake the sliders for 8-10 minutes until the cheese melts and the tops turn golden brown. Let them cool slightly, then cut into individual sliders and serve. For a complete meal, pair with sides like salmon and summer veggies for a fresh twist.
