Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken

- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- If using leftover chicken, shred it using two forks. If starting fresh, cook the chicken breasts in water until fully cooked and then shred.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mayonnaise, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Slice the Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally. Place the bottom halves on a baking sheet lined with foil.
- Spread the chicken mixture evenly over the bottom halves of the rolls. Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top of the chicken.
- Place the top halves of the rolls over the chicken and cheese.
- Cover the sliders with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Then remove the foil and bake for another 5-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and the tops are golden brown.
- Allow the sliders to cool for a few minutes before serving. This helps the cheese set and makes them easier to handle.
- Store any leftover sliders in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
