Chicken Parmesan Sliders Hawaiian Sliders Sandwiches

Sliders, of any kind, made using Hawaiian rolls or soft dinner rolls, are always perfect for a party, potluck or tailgating game day function.

For example, like my Ham and Swiss Sliders, or my Turkey Cranberry Sliders, these Chicken Parmesan Sliders are made using Hawaiian rolls but add chicken nuggets, spaghetti sauce or pasta sauce and mozzarella cheese for a baked Italian style slider that was served at our Super Bowl party. If you would like the Best Chicken Parmesan in a slider form, then this is your recipe!

    Silly question- do you use frozen chicken nuggets that are fully cooked prior to freezing or do you precook the nuggets before assembling sliders?

    Should you use the same about of rolls as chicken nuggets? In the picture there are 12 rolls and 15 nuggets. Can’t wait to try this!

      Hi Sue,

      Thanks for the question. I think it depends on the size of the chicken nuggets that you are using. When I placed the chicken nuts on the rolls, it took 15 of them to cover the bottom of the rolls. I hope that helps.

      Thanks,

      Michele
