Ingredients

  • 12 Hawaiian sweet rolls
  • 2 bricks (8 oz) cream cheese softened
  • ¼ cup chicken broth
  • ¼ cup diced chives plus 1 tablespoon for garnish
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 3 cups cooked chicken shredded (I use a rotisserie chicken)
  • 8 slices bacon cooked and chopped
  • 6 slices Colby Jack cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted
  • 1 tablespoon parmesan cheese grated

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 °F.
  • Prepare a 9x13 baking pan by spraying it with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Cut Hawaiian rolls in half and place the bottoms in your prepared baking pan.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth.
  • Add chicken broth, 1⁄4 cup chives, garlic salt, onion powder, pepper. Mix well.
  • Add chicken and bacon. Stir again.
  • Spread chicken mixture over top of Hawaiian rolls.
  • Top with slices of cheese.
  • Place tops of Hawaiian rolls on top.
  • Brush melted butter over top of the rolls.
  • Sprinkle parmesan cheese and additional chives evenly over rolls.
  • Bake for 15 minutes or until cheese is melted and rolls are golden brown.

Notes

  • Hawaiian buns usually come connected to one another in a sheet. To make slicing them quick and easy, cut the entire sheet in half all at once!
  • Mix all the other crack chicken ingredients before adding the bacon and chicken to ensure the base is fully combined.
  • If you're worried about your sliders getting soggy if your guests don't finish them all, toast the insides of the buns in a skillet before adding the filling. This helps create a barrier against the moisture in the crack chicken filling.
