Challah sliders

Ingredients:

For the Sliders:

• 1 loaf of challah

• 3 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie chicken works well)

• 1 cup BBQ sauce (or your favorite sauce)

• 6-8 slices of cheddar or provolone cheese

• 2 tbsp butter (melted)

• 1 tsp garlic powder

• 1 tsp dried parsley (optional)

• Salt and pepper to taste

Optional Add-Ons:

• Pickles or coleslaw for crunch

• Caramelized onions for extra flavor

• Jalapeños for a spicy kick

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Prepare the Chicken:

   • In a bowl, toss the shredded chicken with the BBQ sauce until fully coated. Adjust the sauce amount to your taste.

3. Assemble the Sliders:

   • Slice the challah loaf in half horizontally. Place the bottom half on a baking sheet or in a large baking dish.

   • Evenly spread the BBQ chicken over the bottom layer of challah.

   • Lay the cheese slices on top of the chicken.

   • Place the top half of the challah over the cheese to create a slider "sandwich."

4. Add the Buttery Topping:

   • Mix the melted butter with garlic powder and parsley. Brush generously over the top of the challah.

5. Bake:

   • Cover the dish loosely with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 5-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and the top is golden brown.

6. Serve:

   • Slice into individual sliders and serve warm. Add pickles or coleslaw for extra texture and flavor.
