Becky’s Tips

  • These chicken parmesan sliders are best served straight from the oven.
  • If you want a heavier sauce, you can substitute jarred pizza sauce for the marina sauce.
  • Pre-toasting the bottom half of the rolls is optional but it does help prevent soggy bottoms!
  • Be generous when brushing the melted butter onto the rolls – it’s worth it!
Storage: Store chicken parmesan sliders in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

My buns burnt, but I used a dark pan. Perhaps a glass dish will do better.3 stars

If using a dark pan, reduce the oven temp by 25°F!

Is the Italian Seasoning amount accurate or a misprint? 1 oz. just sounds like lot.
