Ingredients
Ingredients For Teriyaki Chicken:
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast or use chicken thighs
- 1/2 medium onion, diced
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/3 cup prepared teriyaki sauce
- 2 tbsp dry sherry or chicken broth
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- 12 sweet Hawaiian rolls
Sesame Slaw Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup mayo
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 1/2 tsp Siracha hot sauce
- 1/4 cup fresh chopped cilantro
- 1/3 cup dried cranberries optional
- 3 cups coleslaw mix
Instructions
- To a slow cooker add chicken, onions, and a pinch of salt.
- In a small bowl whisk ketchup, teriyaki sauce, sherry, and ground ginger. Pour sauce over the chicken and onions. Cook on low for 4-5 hours or until chicken easily shreds with a fork. Remove cooked chicken from the slow cooker, shred, then place back in the slow cooker with the extra sauce. Stir to combine and keep warm.
- In a medium bowl combine mayo, rice vinegar, sesame oil, siracha, cilantro, and dried cranberries. Add coleslaw mix and stir to combine the ingredients. Place in the refrigerator until ready to use.
- Slice Hawaiian rolls in half using a large serrated knife. Keep the rolls in tact, do not separate them unless you want to serve individual sliders.
- Optional step: You can toast the inside of each half or serve as is. To toast, place under the broiler for 30 seconds or until golden brown.
- Place shredded chicken over the top of the bottom bun, then top with coleslaw mix. Cover with the top bun and slice into sliders.
Notes
Tips:
- Buns will get soggy fast. If assembling the sliders for a gathering or your family, make sure to serve them right away as the buns will get soggy the longer it sits.
- Make a slider bar. Break each bun into individual servings then set out the chicken and slaw. Let everyone build their own slider.
- Option to add cheese. Toast buns then add a layer of provolone cheese and melt. Layer with chicken and slaw.
