Ingredients

  • 8 to 10 breaded chicken strips frozen
  • ¾ cup Buffalo sauce
  • ¼ cup hot sauce
  • 4 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 12 mini rolls Hawaiian or slider buns
  • 1 ½ cups tri-color slaw mix
  • ¼ cup pickles sliced
  • ¼ cup blue cheese dressing
  • 6 slices provolone cheese
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven and cook frozen chicken tenders according to package directions until golden and crispy.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons melted butter, Buffalo sauce, and hot sauce.
  • Once cooked, cut tenders in half (to fit the buns) and toss in the sauce mixture until evenly coated.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
  • Slice the rolls horizontally (keeping the tops and bottoms connected). Place the bottom layer in the pan.
  • Layer with slaw, saucy chicken pieces, a drizzle of blue cheese, cheese slices, and pickles.
  • Add the top layer of rolls.
  • Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and mix with garlic and Italian seasoning. Brush over the tops of the rolls.
  • Bake uncovered for 10–12 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  • Let cool slightly, sprinkle with parsley, then slice and serve warm.

Notes

Leftover chicken tenders work great for this recipe — just warm them up before tossing in the sauce!
