Chicken And Sliders Food

CHICKEN AND SLIDERS

Steps:

• Wash chicken and place in large pot. Cover with water and add chopped vegetables, bay leaves, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 2 hours or until meat comes away easily from the bone. Remove chicken from broth and strain liquid. Reserve the broth and discard all vegetables.
• When chicken is cool remove meat from the bones and all skin, keeping the chicken meat in reasonably large pieces.
• To make the noodles(sliders): Beat the egg with some of the cooled broth, measure out the flour, work the egg mixture into the flour adding broth as required until the dough forms a ball. Knead the ball for a few minutes. Roll out the dough on a floured surface. Cut the dough into strips about 1 1/2 inches wide and 3 inches long. Don't worry if they are irregular in shape. Leave any excess flour on the noodles.
• Bring the reserved broth to a rapid boil, add the noodles and let them boil for about 5 minutes. Reduce heat, add cut up chicken and simmer until the broth is very thick like gravy (add a little flour to thicken if required). Add salt and pepper to taste.

BAKED CHICKEN AND CHEDDAR SLIDERS

Steps:

• Cut block of rolls horizontally in half. (Do not separate rolls.)
• Place bottom halves of rolls in 13x9-inch pan sprayed with cooking spray; top with chicken, cheese and spinach.
• Spread 1/4 cup dressing onto cut sides of top halves of rolls; place, dressing sides down, on sliders.
• Mix remaining dressing with remaining ingredients until blended; brush over sliders.
• Refrigerate 20 min.
• Heat oven to 350ºF. Bake sliders 20 min. or until cheese is melted and sliders are heated through.

GRANDMA'S CHICKEN AND SLIDERS

Steps:

• Follow our Recipe for Savory Herb Roasted Whole Chicken. https://www.hwcmagazine.com/recipe/savory-herbed-roasted-whole-chicken/
• Remove your Savory Herb Roasted Whole Chicken from the pan and tent with Aluminum foil to keep warm. (Reserve all those delectable juices in the pan from the roasted chicken for the chicken broth gravy for the sliders)
• In a large pot place olive oil, chopped celery, onions, carrots, garlic, salt and pepper and cook until slightly translucent and soft. (If you wanted to you could have slow cooked your vegetables with the roasted chicken in the oven and this is nice as well)
• Add reserved juice from your Savory Herb Whole Roasted Chicken, additional chicken broth, bay leaves, paprika and salt and pepper to taste and bring to a boil. Then reduce and simmer for 1/2 hour.
• Strain and remove all vegetables and bay leaves from broth and bring broth back up to a boil
• Add sliders to broth (recipe below)
• While your chicken soup broth is cooking, make your sliders.
• Beat one egg in a large bowl. Add 4 cups all-purpose flour to bowl and gently stir in the egg.
• Next, add approximately 1- 1.5 cups or more of cooled chicken broth to flour while stirring. Add enough broth so that the flour mixture just starts to form a nice dough ball. You dough should just pull together. If your dough is too wet, add a little more flour. On the other hand, if your dough is too dry, add a little cooled chicken soup broth.
• Liberally flour a clean surface and lightly knead dough just a couple of times to form into a ball. Do NOT over knead your dough as this can make your noodles tough.
• Flatten bread lightly with hands and add more flour on top of dough and on to your rolling pin. Roll to about 1.8th of inch flat or as flat as you can get it as they puff up quite a bit when cooked.
• Cut dough into long slices and then cut each slice into about 1.5 inches long.
• Coat the fresh homemade noodles with lots of flour and do not shake off excess. (First this prevents the noodles from sticking together. In addition, it helps thicken the broth to a nice and thick consistency like a gravy for your sliders. Yum!)
• Grandma used to make a few little small dough balls. She said you were the lucky one if you got one in your bowl. (Totally optional, but fun for the kids)
• Drop the homemade sliders (noodles) into the boiling chicken broth a handful at a time. Be sure to leave on the extra flour to help thicken the chicken broth.
• The broth will start to thicken, and the noodles will float up to the top when they are cooked (about 15-20 minutes). It really depends on how thick your noodles are. Sliders do take longer to cook compared to regular noodles.
• Boil slider noodles until they are soft and pillowy. They should have a slight tooth bite but be light and pillowy. The time needed to get to this stage depends on how large and thick you cut your noodles. Our noodles took between 15 minutes to get to this stage. The sliders will float up to the top of the pot when they are getting close to be done.
• We found that you need this extra time up to almost 25-30 minutes to let all the flavors mingle, the broth to thicken and to get rid of the flour taste. Unlike a traditional noodle, sliders are heartier and stay aldente as long as you have enough broth in the pot.
• Now, your broth should be thick almost like a soup gravy and your sliders are pillowy soft but still have a little tooth bite feel. Salt and pepper and season to taste. If your broth is too thin, mix a little flour and water slurry and add to the chicken broth and bring up to a boil.
• Allow to continue to boil for several minutes to remove the flour taste and for the flavors to mingle. On the other hand, if your soup broth is too thick and your noodles do not have enough liquid to boil, you will need to add more chicken broth to your pot. Then, re-season as needed.
• Serve sliders alongside of sliced Savory Herb Roasted Whole Chicken and mashed potatoes for the full comfort food experience.
• We hope you enjoy Grandma's Chicken and Sliders the worlds perfect comfort food! (Tonight, a rare event. We actually have leftovers and looking forward to eating it tomorrow as it is even better the next day)

CHICKEN AND CHEESE SLIDERS

Steps:

• Coat a medium saucepan with cooking spray. Cook bell pepper, onion and garlic in pan over medium heat, stirring, 3 minutes. Add chicken, barbecue sauce, chipotles and 1/4 cup water; cover and simmer until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°:F, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove chicken from sauce; place on a plate to cool for 5 minutes. Use a fork to pull meat off bone and shred; return meat to pan and toss to coat with sauce. Heat oven to 400°F. Open buns and set on a baking sheet covered with foil. Distribute chicken evenly among bottom half of each bun (about 2 tablespoons per bun); top each with 2 tablespoons cheese. Bake until cheese melts and bubbles, 4 to 5 minutes. Top with tomatoes, sprouts and bun cap; serve immediately.

GRILLED CHICKEN BACON SLIDERS

Steps:

• Slice bacon pieces in half and fry over medium-low heat until Place the palm of your hand flat on the top of each chicken breast. Apply light pressure as you slice it horizontally in half (be careful!) When you're finished, you'll have eight thinner chicken breast pieces. Slice each of these in half so you'll wind up with sixteen small chicken "patties." Place a piece of plastic wrap on top of the thicker pieces and pound gently with a rolling pin to flatten slightly. Brush both sides of the chicken pieces with a little bit of the bacon fat, then season with Cajun spice and salt and pepper to taste. Heat a grill pan if you have one, or a heavy skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Cook chicken pieces on the first side for a couple of minutes, then flip them over to the other side. Lay slices of cheese (whatever kind you'd like) on top of each piece, then top with a couple of bacon slices. Cook until chicken is done, then remove from the pan. Spread both sides of dinner rolls with the spread of your choice (mayo, mustard, etc.) and the toppings of your choice (tomato, lettuce, etc.) Place chicken pieces in between halved dinner rolls. Serve immediately!Variations:* Brush a little BBQ sauce on the chicken before laying on the slice of cheese and the bacon.* Brush a little Louisiana hot sauce on the chicken. Add bacon, then top with a bunch of celery leaves before putting inside the buns.* Change up the cheese, toppings, however you'd like!
