Thank you, Fischer & Wieser, for providing me with free product to create today’s delicious recipe.
These Raspberry Chipotle Chicken Sliders are packed with incredible sweet and savory flavor! They’re sure to disappear in a hurry!
My family and I have long been obsessed with The Original Roasted Raspberry Chipotle Sauce®. Have you tried it? If not, I highly recommend it. It’s a smoky-sweet sauce with just the right amount of heat. It’s one of those sauces that you find yourself adding to basically anything and everything on your plate. We typically enjoy it over pork chops or spinach salad or in tortilla wraps and shrimp tacos, but I’ve been dreaming of incorporating it into a slider sandwich with shredded chicken, jalapeños, bacon crumbles, cream cheese, and pepper jack cheese.
Today that dream comes true! The ingredient combo is nothing short of incredible! I don’t know why I didn’t think of it before. 🙂 Each bite is an absolute treat for the taste buds.
The Original Roasted Raspberry Chipotle Sauce® is the secret, all-star ingredient that totally makes this recipe! I’m a fan of its gorgeous color too! These sliders certainly wouldn’t be the same without it! I added some into the filling and then drizzled a little extra inside before replacing the roll tops. I know you’re going to be crazy for these sliders too!
A little melted butter in the bottom of the pan and drizzled on top doesn’t hurt anything either. 🙂 It causes a nice crust to form on the rolls so they don’t get soggy while baking. This recipe is so versatile. Swap out the chicken for leftover Thanksgiving turkey and use those remaining rolls from the feast as well.
