Ingredients

For the Chicken:

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil (for pan-frying)

For the Bang Bang Sauce:

  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp sweet chili sauce
  • 1–2 tsp sriracha (adjust for heat preference)
  • 1 tsp honey
  • ½ tsp lime juice

For Assembly:

  • 8 slider buns, lightly toasted
  • Lettuce leaves
  • Sliced pickles (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken
    Slice chicken into slider-sized pieces if using breasts. Set up a breading station: flour in one bowl, beaten eggs in another, and panko in a third.
  2. Bread the Chicken
    Dredge chicken in flour, dip into eggs, then coat with panko breadcrumbs.
  3. Cook the Chicken
    Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry chicken pieces for 3–4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  4. Make the Sauce
    In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, honey, and lime juice until smooth.
  5. Assemble the Sliders
    Spread a little bang bang sauce on each bun bottom. Layer with lettuce, chicken, and pickles if using. Drizzle more sauce on top and close with the bun.
  6. Serve
    Serve immediately while chicken is hot and crispy.
