Ingredients for Chicken Bacon Ranch Sliders
Here’s what you will need for these tasty little sliders:
How to Make Chicken Bacon Ranch Sliders
Start by preheating your oven. Once it’s warmed up, simply place 9 rolls on a baking sheet and bake according to package directions.
Meanwhile, prep the chicken bacon ranch patties. In a bowl, combine the ground chicken, ranch packet, olive oil and bacon bits.
I like to use an ice cream scoop to portion out these sliders. It makes the perfect size for the rolls and ensures they cook evenly.
Lay out a piece of parchment paper and scoop 9 patties. Place on the parchment and flatten to a size slightly bigger than the rolls. They will shrink a bit when cooking.
You can either grill the chicken patties or cook them in a skillet. If you have a grill, that’s my favorite way to cook them. A cast iron skillet is a great option too. If you’re cooking them in a skillet, add a drizzle of olive oil.
Cook the bacon until crispy. My favorite way to get crisp bacon without making a huge mess is this oven baked bacon.
Once all the elements are done, slice the rolls in half and top with a chicken patty. Add a slice of bacon, a drizzle of ranch, lettuce and tomato.
