Thanks to rotisserie chicken, these cheesy, smoky sliders are a snap to make on a busy day. The special barbecue sauce really takes it up a notch. —Nancy Heishman, Las Vegas, Nevada

Ingredients

3/4 cup beer or reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup barbecue sauce
1 tablespoon bourbon
1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/4 teaspoon ground mustard
2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
8 slider buns, split
1-1/2 cups shredded smoked cheddar cheese

Directions

Preheat broiler. In a large saucepan, mix first 6 ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until slightly thickened, 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in chicken; heat through.
Place buns on a baking sheet, cut side up. Broil 3-4 in. from heat until lightly toasted, 30-60 seconds.
Remove tops of buns from baking sheet. Top bottoms with chicken mixture; sprinkle with cheese. Broil 3-4 in. from heat until cheese is melted, 1-2 minutes. Add bun tops.

Can you freeze Barbecue Chicken Sliders?

Freeze cooled chicken mixture in freezer containers. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Heat through in a saucepan, stirring occasionally; add water if necessary.

Test Kitchen tips

Don’t turn your back while broiling the buns or melting the cheese. They go from perfect to well-done in a blink.

You can also use leftover shredded chicken. We like the added flavor and convenience of starting with rotisserie-cooked.

Smoked cheddar adds another layer of flavor, but regular cheddar, provolone or mozzarella would taste great, too.
