02 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
03 - 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
04 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
05 - 1/2 teaspoon salt

# How To Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Place chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to even 1/2-inch thickness.
03 - Rub chicken with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
04 - Bake chicken on the prepared sheet for 15-18 minutes, or until cooked through. Let rest 5 minutes, then slice into slider-sized pieces.
05 - While chicken cooks, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt to make the honey mustard sauce.
06 - Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp. Drain on paper towels.
07 - Brush slider buns with melted butter and toast, cut side down, in a pan or oven until golden.
08 - Spread honey mustard sauce on the bottom half of each bun. Layer with lettuce, sliced chicken, tomato, and bacon. Top with the remaining bun halves.
09 - Serve immediately, securing each slider with a toothpick if desired.

# Tips from dashanddishes:

01 -
  • These sliders balance salty, sweet, tangy, and fresh in every single bite
  • They come together in under an hour but taste like you fussed all day
  • The honey mustard sauce becomes your new go-to for everything else too
02 -
  • Slice the chicken against the grain for the most tender bite
  • Toasting the buns is not optional, it keeps everything from falling apart
  • The sauce can be made a day ahead and actually tastes better after resting
03 -
  • Let the chicken rest before slicing or all those juices will escape onto your cutting board
  • Use a serrated knife to slice the tomatoes without squishing them
