Follow The Directions

01

Step
10 mins

Prepare the Chicken: Halve each chicken breast horizontally to create thinner cutlets. Place the cutlets in a large resealable plastic bag. Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, flatten each piece to approximately 1/2-inch thickness. (Prep time: 10 minutes)

02

Step
2 hrs

Marinate: Pour the buffalo wing sauce into the bag with the chicken. Seal the bag tightly, removing excess air. Gently massage the sauce into the chicken, ensuring each piece is evenly coated. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours, allowing the flavors to meld. (Marinating time: 30 minutes - 2 hours)

03

Step
15 mins

Prepare the Grill: Preheat your gas grill to medium heat, or prepare a charcoal grill, waiting until the coals are covered with a light gray ash. (Prep time: 15 minutes)

04

Step
12 mins

Grill the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade, discarding the used sauce. Place the marinated chicken cutlets onto the preheated grill. Grill for 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the chicken is cooked through. For an extra burst of flavor, brush with additional buffalo wing sauce during the last few minutes of grilling. During the last minute of cooking, top each chicken piece with 2 quarters of American cheese, allowing it to melt slightly. (Cooking time: 10-12 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Toast the Buns: While the chicken rests briefly, place the slider buns, cut-side down, onto the grill. Toast for 1-2 minutes, or until lightly golden and toasted. Watch carefully to prevent burning. (Cooking time: 1-2 minutes)

06

Step
5 mins

Assemble the Sliders: Spread blue cheese dressing generously on the cut sides of the toasted slider buns. Arrange celery sticks and grilled chicken onto the bottom halves of the buns. Top with the remaining halves, and serve immediately.

For a tangier flavor, add a tablespoon of vinegar to the buffalo sauce before marinating.
If you don't have a grill, you can pan-fry the chicken in a skillet over medium heat.
Experiment with different cheeses! Pepper jack or a sharp cheddar would also be delicious.
To make it a complete meal, serve the sliders with a side of coleslaw or potato salad.
