CHICKEN PARMESAN SLIDERS
(Serves 12)

Chicken Parmesan Sliders are sweet dinner rolls toasted with garlic butter and topped with Parmesan cheese. Slices of pan-fried chicken, marinara sauce and piles of mozzarella cheese top this picture perfect slider. It is a simple recipe that is absolutely heavenly and party-ready!

INGREDIENTS
* 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
* 3 chicken breasts (1 ½ pounds total), cut into twelve 1/2-inch steaks
* 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
* 2 teaspoons fresh cracked black pepper
* 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
* 1 teaspoon garlic powder
* 3 ounces grated fresh parmesan cheese
* 3/4 cup marinara sauce
* 4 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
* 1 package of 12 Dinner Rolls


INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 205°C/400°F.   Place rolls on a cutting board, using a serrated knife cut rolls in half lengthwise (without breaking rolls apart).  Open rolls and place tops on one side of a baking sheet and bottoms on the other side cut-side up.
2. Melt butter in a small microwave-safe bowl, stir in garlic powder.  Brush butter on cut side of bread.  Bake bread for 8-10 minutes until bread is lightly golden brown.
3. Prepare chicken by slicing the thickest part of the breast about ½” thick.  Cut the thinner part of the breast into pieces slightly larger than the individual rolls.
4. Meanwhile, warm a large skillet over medium-high heat.  Drizzle with olive oil.  Sprinkle chicken with 1/2 of salt and 1/2 of pepper. Cook until browned, flip and cook until cooked through, about 8 minutes total.
5. Remove bread from oven.  Carefully remove top halves of rolls and place on a plate.  Set aside.  Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the bottom halves.  Top with cooked chicken pieces.  Drizzle each chicken piece with about 1 tablespoon of marinara sauce and top with mozzarella cheese.  Bake 5 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and melted.
6. Place top halves back on chicken.  Cut into sliders, serve and enjoy!
