Garlic Basil Grilled Chicken Pizza Sliders
Flavors Used:
Nothing quite beats pizza, but these Fresh Mouth Watering Garlic Basil Grilled Chicken Pizza Sliders come pretty Dan close. Popping that trigger finger generously with some Dan-O’s Spicy Seasoning to help give that chicken a kick that’s going to play nice with our Italian marina and sweet Hawaiian rolls to make a melody of flavors. Now that’s a song we can get behind.
A song to sing, indeed.
This is a bright and flavor-filled dish. The chicken brings a small fiery kick that’s not going to overwhelm, and that’s then going to be balanced out with the sweetness of the cheese blend and the thick, rich chunky marinara sauce. The buttery garlic will help brown the rolls’ tops, giving them a slightly browned and flaky crust that will melt in your mouth.

Something you can do to really give this dish a new set of clothes is make the chicken like Chicken Parmesan. Instead of coating the chicken in just Dan-O’s Spicy, you can mix spicy with panko bread crumbs or Italian bread crumbs. Then coat the chicken in the breadcrumb mixture. Pan-fry or bake the chicken until done, then proceed with the recipe as normal. You can also play with the cheeses here, opting for sliced mozzarella, provolone, or even a spread of ricotta. No matter how you fix these up, this is a fun dish that’s sure to delight
