0:05
chicken sliders only seven ingredients
0:09
these are perfect like for football food
0:14
anytime all right I've got Kings
0:17
Hawaiian rolls we're going to be using
0:19
12 of these for a single recipe that I'm
0:21
doing if you want to double up here's a
0:25
24 we're doing 12 of them
0:32
you want to keep them all
0:35
connected the 12 that you're going to
0:38
use as much as possible
0:44
anyway I'm going to be using a serrated
0:47
knife we're going to go halfway down the
0:51
roll and keep it centered so you want to
0:53
place your hand on top of the rolls as
0:56
through and you want to make sure that
0:58
you stay in the center
1:02
so always take a peek yep I need to come
1:06
up a little bit let this is
1:13
fine what we're going to do is take the
1:16
tops off and then we're going to place
1:17
them on a plate we're going to set this
1:21
aside we're going to take a 9x13 baking
1:27
dish I'm going to spray it with a little
1:29
little bit of cooking
1:32
spray that'll keep the rolls from
1:35
sticking now what we're going to do is
1:37
take the bottoms of our
1:40
rolls and put them in our baking dish
1:43
try to keep them all together okay we've
1:45
got the first ingredient the second
1:47
ingredient is going to be pesto I'm
1:53
pesto y'all this stuff is good stuff let
1:57
you it has basil spinach garlic there's
2:02
cheese Romano cheese and other things in
2:04
here but the flavor of this it's going
2:07
to be delicious on these chicken sliders
2:10
all right I've got a 6.5 o jar we're
2:13
going to start spooning it on each
2:17
here doesn't that look like some good
2:24
there oh that smells good it does smell
2:28
good ah I have Thomas in the kitchen say
2:31
hi to Thomas hey all right we're going
2:35
around I'm going to be using half the
2:37
jar because we'll put the other half on
2:39
the top of the rolls when we get to that
2:41
point y'all almost let me forget that so
2:45
I got more down here than any we're
2:50
out okay okay now we're going to save
2:53
the rest for the other side of the Buns
2:56
we're going to be using cooked chicken
2:59
I'm using a rotisserie chicken cuz it
3:01
adds a lot of flavor this chicken came
3:04
from HB which is our local grocery store
3:14
price I'm going to pull it out now this
3:18
refrigerator and I'm just going to start
3:23
up I'm going to take all the white meat
3:26
off probably just the chicken breast for
3:28
this recipe here y'all know my husband
3:31
Thomas will eat the legs the wings and
3:36
the thigh meat so and that is a part of
3:39
chicken that I do not eat I eat it
3:43
all every bit of every bit of it all
3:46
right so I'm going to take off what I
3:47
need you need about two to three cups
3:50
now if you don't do rotisserie chicken
3:53
you can bake your chicken broil your
3:56
chicken you can put your chicken in a
3:58
crock pot cook it that way put it in
4:01
your instant pot if you want to boil
4:03
your chicken I would suggest you add
4:06
flavor to it like garlic onion powder
4:10
salt pepper probably put some Paprika in
4:13
there oregano whatever you want now you
4:17
can shred your chicken like I'm doing
4:19
here or you can even chop it up into
4:21
bite-sized pieces if you want to do that
4:23
I've got it all shredded up we're going
4:27
that to the top of our pesto here that's
4:30
on those rolls in our baking
4:46
dish all right I'm going to smooth it
4:48
out even it out a little bit so every
4:52
roll gets a bite of that
4:55
chicken all right that's the third
4:58
ingredient ingredient rent number four
5:00
is going to be shredded cheese I'm using
5:03
a mozzarella cheese or you can use a
5:05
Monterey Jack cheese or cheddar cheese
5:08
whatever flavor you want for your
5:10
sliders so I'm going to take one and 1/2
5:13
cups and we're going to go across the
5:23
chicken this is going to be good
5:34
okay we're going to bring over the tops
5:36
of the buns and you want the inside of
5:38
the bun facing upward we're going to
5:41
place the rest of the
5:43
pesto which I believe this was the
5:47
ingredient at the very beginning so
5:49
we're going to just finish this
5:55
off okay let me see what we got left in
6:03

6:06
Italian basil in it so that's what it is
