Chicken Parmesan Sliders

Ingredients

• 24 oz frozen breaded chicken tenders
• 12 oz package Hawaiian sweet rolls
• 7 1/2 oz package sliced provolone or mozzarella
• 24 oz jar marinara sauce
• TOPPING
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 TB minced fresh basil

Instructions

• Prepare chicken tenders according to package directions.
• Reduce oven to 375 degrees.
• Without separating Hawaiian rolls, cut horizontally in half. Arrange roll bottoms in a greased 13 x 9 baking dish.
• Spread half of cheese slices over roll bottoms.
• Bake until cheese is melted, 3 - 5 minutes.
• Layer rolls with half of sauce, chicken tenders, remaining sauce and remaining cheese slices. Replace top halves of rolls.
• Make topping: melt butter, garlic powder and red pepper flakes and stir together.
• Pour (or brush) over rolls. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
• Bake uncovered until golden brown and heated through, about 20 minutes.
• Sprinkle with basil before serving.
• Note: Dinner rolls can be used instead of Hawaiian rolls, but I loved the slightly-sweet taste of the Hawaiian rolls. Add some pepperoni slices if you want! Sub chicken nuggets for the tenders. 13 x 9 pan may not be full, and I had a couple of chicken tenders left over.
