Instructions
Creating Bang Bang Chicken Sliders can be simple and enjoyable. Just follow these steps:
1. Marinate Chicken: Soak the chicken breasts in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes to tenderize the meat and enhance flavor.
2. Prepare Dry Mixture: In a large bowl, combine flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
3. Coat the Chicken: Remove marinated chicken from buttermilk and let excess drip off. Dredge in the flour mixture, ensuring an even coat.
4. Heat Oil: In a deep skillet, heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
5. Fry Chicken: Fry the chicken in batches for 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.
6. Make Bang Bang Sauce: In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha until combined. Adjust sriracha to your heat preference.
7. Assemble the Sliders: Slice the slider buns in half. Place a piece of fried chicken on the bottom half of each bun. Add a dollop of Bang Bang sauce and top with lettuce.
8. Garnish: If desired, sprinkle with chopped green onions for an extra layer of flavor.
9. Top and Serve: Place the top half of the bun on each slider.
