Super Bowl Sunday? Chicken Parmesan Sliders Makes 12 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil 3 chicken breasts (1 ½ lbs. total), cut into 12 ‘½” steaks’ (Shan uses boneless, skinless Chicken Thighs) ½ teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons fresh cracked black pepper 3 tablespoons unsalted butter 1 teaspoon garlic powder 3 ounces grated fresh Parmesan cheese ¾ cup marinara sauce 4 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese 1 recipe Shan’s Dinner Rolls (Roll Mix-see image below) Preheat oven to 400°. Place rolls on a cutting board, using a serrated knife cut rolls in half lengthwise (without breaking rolls apart). Open rolls and place tops on one side of a baking sheet (lined with foil) and bottoms on the other side, cut side up. Melt butter in a small microwave safe bowl, stir in garlic powder. Brush butter on cut side of bread. Bake bread for 8-10 minutes until bread is lightly golden brown. Prepare chicken by slicing the thickest part of the breast about ½” thick. Cut the thinner part of the breast into pieces slightly larger than the individual rolls. Meanwhile warm a large skillet over medium high heat. Drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle chicken with ½ of salt and ½ of pepper. Cook until browned, flip and cook until cooked through, about 8 minutes total. Remove bread from oven. Carefully remove top halves of rolls and place on a plate. Set aside. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the bottom halves. Top with cooked chicken pieces. Drizzle each chicken piece with about 1 tablespoon of marinara sauce and top with mozzarella cheese. Bake 5 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and melted. Place top halves back on chicken. Serve and enjoy!
