Ingredients
  

  • cups cooked shredded chicken breast
  • 1 package Hawaiian Rolls 12 count
  • 2 8- ounce packages cream cheese softened
  • 1 12- ounce package cooked crumbled bacon
  • cups shredded cheddar cheese divided into 1 cup for filling and 1½ cups for topping
  • 6 tablespoons melted salted sweet cream butter
  • 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
  • 2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh chives optional
  • 1 ounce packet dry ranch dressing mix
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, ranch dressing mix, onion powder, black pepper, and sliced green onions.
  • Mix in the shredded chicken, crumbled bacon, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
  • Place the bottom layer of slider buns in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Spread the cream cheese chicken mixture evenly over the buns.
  • Top with the remaining 1½ cups of shredded cheddar cheese.
  • Place the top buns over the cheese layer.
  • In a separate bowl, mix melted butter, grated parmesan cheese, and chopped chives (if using). Brush this mixture over the rolls.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and bake for an additional 8 minutes, or until the rolls are golden and the cheese is melted.
  • Let the casserole cool slightly, then cut into individual sliders and serve.

Notes

Add diced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the chicken mixture for extra spice. Substitute different cheeses, such as pepper jack, for a twist on flavor. To make a low-carb version, omit the slider buns and bake the chicken mixture as a standalone casserole.
