Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

• 1 ½ pounds thin sliced chicken breasts
• Kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder (for seasoning)
• ½ cup flour
• ¼ cup cornstarch
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 tablespoon hot sauce
• 1 large egg
• 2 cups Panko bread crumbs (more if needed)
• Vegetable or canola oil (for frying)
• 12 slices mozzarella cheese
• 12 slider rolls
• Bang Bang Sauce (mayonnaise, sriracha, sweet chili sauce, honey)

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Season the chicken: Sprinkle both sides of the chicken with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
2. Prepare breading stations:
   • Bowl 1: Flour + cornstarch
   • Bowl 2: Buttermilk + hot sauce + egg
   • Bowl 3: Panko bread crumbs
3. Bread the chicken: Dredge chicken in flour mixture, then dip in buttermilk mixture, then coat in breadcrumbs, pressing them in for full coverage.
4. Fry the cutlets: Heat a thin layer of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry chicken 2–3 minutes per side until golden and cooked through (165°F internal temperature). Transfer to a paper towel–lined plate.
5. Make the sauce: Whisk mayonnaise, sriracha, sweet chili sauce, and honey until smooth. Adjust spice to taste.
6. Assemble sliders: Cut chicken into slider-sized pieces, place on buns, top with mozzarella slices, and drizzle with bang bang sauce. Serve immediately.

Pro Tips:

• For a lighter version, cook the chicken in an air fryer or bake until crispy.
• Keep chicken warm in a 325°F oven if making ahead.
• Serve sauce at room temperature so it doesn’t cool the sliders.
