Instructions
Creating Marry Me Chicken Sliders is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Start by trimming any excess fat from the chicken breasts and cutting them into smaller pieces for even cooking.
2. Season the Chicken: In a bowl, season the chicken with salt, pepper, dried basil, and dried oregano.
3. Heat the Olive Oil: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and allow it to heat up.
4. Cook the Chicken: Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken and set aside.
5. Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Then, pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine.
6. Add Parmesan Cheese: Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese to the sauce, stirring until melted and creamy.
7. Return the Chicken: Place the cooked chicken back into the skillet. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the chicken to absorb the flavors of the sauce.
8. Prepare the Buns: While the chicken is simmering, slice the slider buns in half and lightly toast them if desired.
9. Assemble the Sliders: Place a piece of chicken on the bottom half of each slider bun. Spoon some creamy sauce over the chicken, then add the top half of the bun.
10. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top for a burst of color and flavor.
