Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 0.5 cups Frank's RedHot Buffalo Wings Sauce
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 8 leaves Lettuce leaves (such as butter or iceberg)
• 2 stalks Celery sticks
• 0.25 cups Blue cheese crumbles
• 0.25 cups Ranch dressing (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 2

Place the boneless chicken breasts on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.

Step 3

Sprinkle the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper, ensuring they are evenly coated.

Step 4

Bake the chicken breasts for about 20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 5

While the chicken is baking, melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat.

Step 6

Add the Frank's RedHot Buffalo Wings Sauce to the melted butter and stir to combine. Keep the sauce warm on low heat.

Step 7

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly.

Step 8

Using two forks, shred the chicken breasts into thin strips.

Step 9

In a large bowl, toss the shredded chicken with the warm Buffalo sauce until the chicken is fully coated.

Step 10

Prepare the lettuce leaves by washing and drying them, ensuring they form a cup-like shape for the sliders.

Step 11

Chop the celery sticks into small, bite-sized pieces.

Step 12

To assemble the sliders, place a generous amount of the Buffalo chicken mixture into each lettuce leaf.

Step 13

Top the chicken with a sprinkle of blue cheese crumbles and some chopped celery for added crunch.

Step 14

Serve immediately with a side of ranch dressing, if desired.
