Notes

Storage Directions
  • Refrigeration: Leftover sliders keep covered in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. 
  • Freezing: The sandwiches can also be frozen in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Defrost them overnight in the refrigerator until thawed.
  • Reheating: Wrap the bacon, ranch, and rotisserie chicken sliders in aluminum foil and heat in a 300°F oven for 8-12 minutes or until heated through.
 
Recipe Success Tips
  • Chop the bacon and chicken into evenly sized-pieces. This ensures an even flavor in every bite. Furthermore, chop the meat into small pieces to give the ranch the most surface area to cling to, creating the fullest flavor. 
  • Don’t overcook the chicken filling. Doing so can dry out the chicken. Instead, heat the filling just until hot. This usually takes about 3-5 minutes.
  • Recipe variations. Swap roast turkey for chicken to use up Thanksgiving leftovers, though deli turkey is also delicious! Experiment with different cheeses, such as Monterey Jack, Colby Jack, white cheddar, or Swiss for a savory twist. Or, add tomato slices and a handful of baby spinach to add crunch and color.
