Ingredients
- 2 large Boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup buttermilk, see notes for substitution options
- ¾ cup flour
- 2 teaspoons seasoned salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 large eggs, whisked
- 1 ½ cups breadcrumbs
- ¼ cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 Tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- ½ cup olive oil
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- 6 slices provolone cheese
- ½ cup marinara sauce
- 18 Farm Rich Mozzarella Sticks
- 6 Slider Buns
Butter Topping
- ¼ cup butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese, grated
Instructions
- Butterfly the chicken breast and cut the seam to create 2 thinner slices, each about ¾ inch thick. Top the chicken with wax paper and use a meat pounder as necessary to pound the chicken flat.
- Cut each in half or into thirds to match the size of the buns you’ll be using.
- Place the buttermilk in a thick gallon freezer bag. Add the chicken and marinate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight.
- Create an assembly line for breading the chicken:
- Bowl #1: 3/4 cup flour + 2 tsp seasoned salt + ½ tsp black pepper.
- Bowl #2: 2 whisked eggs.
- Bowl #3: 1.5 cups breadcrumbs + ¼ cup grated Parmesan + 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- Remove the chicken from the bag and let any excess buttermilk drip off.
- Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture, then briefly in the whisked eggs, then smother them in the breadcrumb mixture until completely covered.
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Bake the mozzarella sticks for 7 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside.
- Reduce heat to 350.
- Heat ½ cup olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken and cook each side until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side. Remove from heat.
- Arrange the bottom slider buns in a casserole dish. Top with chicken.
- Spoon marinara sauce over the chicken and top with provolone cheese and mozzarella sticks.
- Place the buns over the sliders.
- In a small bowl, combine the butter topping and brush the buns with it.
- Cover with foil and bake for 8 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for 2-3 more minutes, until the top is golden brown.
