Crock Pot Chicken Parmesan Sliders
Description
Crock Pot Chicken Parmesan Sliders start with boneless, skinless chicken breasts cooked slowly in a mix of marinara sauce, Italian seasoning, garlic, salt, and pepper until they are tender enough to shred easily. The shredded chicken is returned to the sauce to absorb more flavor. The chicken mixture is then spooned onto the bottom halves of Hawaiian rolls arranged in a baking dish. Layers of shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese are added before topping with the other half of the rolls.
The assembled sliders are brushed with melted butter, sprinkled with additional Parmesan cheese and garlic salt, then baked covered to heat through and allow the flavors to meld. Removing the foil for the last few minutes browns the top, creating a slightly crisp crust on the soft rolls. These sliders serve well as a casual meal, appetizer, or party snack, combining the ease of slow cooker preparation with baked cheesy goodness.
The recipe suggests flexibility in sauce choice, allowing for substitution with spaghetti sauce, tomato sauce, or crushed tomatoes if preferred. Serving immediately while warm helps maintain the soft texture of the rolls and the gooey melted cheese.
Ingredients
- 3 chicken breast boneless skinless
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 jar marinara sauce (24 oz)
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 2 teaspoon garlic minced
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
- 1 pkg hawaiian rolls (12 count)
- 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese grated
- 3 tablespoon butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
Instructions
- Place the chicken, salt, pepper, marinara sauce, Italian seasoning and garlic in a crock pot.

- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Slice the Hawaiian Rolls in half and place the bottom half of the Hawaiian Rolls in a 9X13 pan.
- Spoon the chicken on the Hawaiian rolls in the pan.
- Top with the shredded mozzarella cheese, the grated parmesan cheese (reserve 1 tablespoon for the top) and the top Hawaiian rolls.
- Brush on top of the Hawaiian Rolls in the pan with the melted butter. Sprinkle the remaining parmesan cheese and garlic salt on top.
