Ingredients

Chicken Patties

  • 1 lb ground Halal chicken
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Slider Assembly

  • 6 slider buns
  • 1 cup fresh lettuce, shredded
  • 1 medium tomato, sliced
  • 4 oz cheddar cheese, sliced
  • ¼ cup your favorite sauce (barbecue, spicy mayo, etc.)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken mixture: In a large bowl, combine the ground Halal chicken with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
  2. Form the patties: Shape the mixture into small patties approximately 2-3 inches in diameter, ensuring they are evenly sized for even cooking.
  3. Cook the sliders: Heat a skillet over medium heat with a splash of oil. Cook each chicken patty for 6 minutes per side or until golden brown and fully cooked through.
  4. Toast the buns: While the sliders cook, slice the slider buns in half and toast them lightly in another pan or skillet until golden and slightly crispy.
  5. Assemble the sliders: Place a layer of shredded lettuce on the bottom half of each bun, add a cooked chicken patty, top with a slice of cheddar cheese, a slice of tomato, and a drizzle of your favorite sauce. Cover with the top bun.
  6. Serve: Serve the mini chicken sliders immediately while they are hot for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • To keep the sliders juicy, avoid overworking the chicken mixture when forming the patties.
  • You can substitute cheddar cheese with other cheese varieties like Swiss or pepper jack for different flavors.
  • Use whole wheat or gluten-free slider buns to adapt for dietary needs.
  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the chicken mixture or choose a spicy sauce.
  • If you don’t have a skillet, you can grill the patties on a grill pan or outdoor grill instead.
