Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 12 mini slider buns
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion
  • 1/2 cup pickles (optional)
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. In a large bowl, mix buttermilk, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for the best flavor.
  2. Make the Bang Bang Sauce: In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, honey, lime juice, and additional garlic powder. Set aside.
  3. Dredge and Fry the Chicken: Combine flour and panko breadcrumbs. Dredge the marinated chicken in the flour mixture. Heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C) and fry the chicken in batches for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
  4. Assemble the Sliders: Lightly toast the slider buns. Spread Bang Bang sauce on the bottom buns. Layer with crispy chicken, lettuce, red onion, and pickles. Top with cilantro and the top bun.
  5. Serve: Arrange on a serving platter and offer extra Bang Bang sauce for dipping.

Notes

You can substitute chicken thighs for a juicier option or use gluten-free breadcrumbs for a gluten-free version. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
