Ingredients:

• For the Sliders:

  • 12 slider buns (or mini sandwich rolls)

  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken works great)

  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

  • 1/2 cup sour cream

  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise

  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing

  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce (adjust to taste)

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)

  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions (optional, for garnish)

• For the Topping:

  • 2 tablespoons melted butter

  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika

  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Filling:

   • In a large bowl, mix together the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, ranch dressing, hot sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika (if using) until smooth and well combined.

   • Stir in the shredded chicken, shredded cheddar cheese, and shredded mozzarella cheese. Mix until everything is evenly incorporated.

2. Assemble the Sliders:

   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

   • Slice the slider buns in half horizontally, keeping the tops and bottoms intact (you can do this all at once or individually depending on your pan size).

   • Place the bottom half of the buns in a baking dish or sheet pan.

   • Spread the Mississippi Sin mixture evenly over the bottom half of the buns.

   • Top with the top half of the buns, pressing gently to secure the layers.

3. Prepare the Topping:

   • In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with garlic powder, paprika, and parsley (if using).

   • Brush the butter mixture generously over the top of the slider buns.

4. Bake:

   • Cover the pan with foil and bake for 15 minutes.

   • After 15 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the sliders are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

5. Serve:

   • Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool for a couple of minutes.

   • Slice into individual sliders and serve warm. Garnish with extra green onions or parsley, if desired.

Tips:

• Make it Spicy: Add extra hot sauce or a pinch of cayenne pepper if you want more heat in the sliders.

• Swap the Meat: You can substitute the shredded chicken with shredded cooked beef, pork, or turkey for a different flavor.

• Vegetarian Version: Replace the chicken with a combination of sautéed vegetables (like mushrooms, bell peppers, and onions) for a vegetarian-friendly option.

• Make Ahead: You can assemble the sliders ahead of time and store them in the fridge for up to 24 hours before baking.

These Mississippi Sin Sliders are creamy, cheesy, and perfectly spiced—an irresistible combination that everyone will love!
