Exciting Story:

The first time I made these Chicken Bacon Ranch Pull-Apart Sliders was for a last-minute game day party at our house. My husband had invited a few friends over, and I needed something quick, easy, and guaranteed to please a hungry crowd. I threw together some ingredients we had on hand—leftover chicken, a pack of bacon, ranch dressing, and some cheese—and the result was these amazing sliders.

They were an instant hit. As soon as they came out of the oven, the guys couldn’t wait to dig in. The smell of garlic butter, crispy bacon, and melted cheese filled the kitchen, and before I knew it, the sliders were gone. Now, every time we have a gathering, these sliders are the first thing on the menu. They’ve become a staple in our house, and I have a feeling they will in yours too.

How to Make Chicken Bacon Ranch Pull-Apart Sliders

Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
Prepare the Slider Base:
- Without separating the rolls, slice them in half horizontally. Place the bottom halves in the prepared baking dish.
Layer the Ingredients:
- Spread the shredded chicken evenly over the bottom halves of the rolls. Drizzle the ranch dressing over the chicken. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon and shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
Top with the Slider Lids:
- Place the top halves of the rolls over the cheese layer, pressing down gently.
Garlic Butter Topping:
- In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with minced garlic. Brush this mixture generously over the tops of the rolls.
Bake the Sliders:
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve:
- Remove the sliders from the oven and let them cool slightly before cutting them into individual sliders. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve warm.

Tips:

For a spicier kick, add some chopped jalapeños or a drizzle of hot sauce to the chicken layer.
If you’re short on time, use pre-cooked bacon or even bacon bits.

Substitutions and Variations:

Turkey Twist: Use leftover turkey instead of chicken for a post-Thanksgiving treat.
Cheese Swap: Try using pepper jack cheese for an extra kick.
Low-Carb Option: Use low-carb rolls or lettuce wraps in place of the slider rolls.

Make a Healthier Version:

Lighter Ranch: Use a low-fat or Greek yogurt-based ranch dressing.
Turkey Bacon: Substitute regular bacon with turkey bacon to cut down on fat.
