Chicken Bacon Ranch Sliders

I was thinking about a heavy appetizer for a small church group and ventured into searching for some ideas. Found these sliders. Did some swaps… Bing Bang Boom, Yum.

These aren’t your typical sliders. It’s hearty and meant for a meat lover. This bakes into a big, thick cheesy slider. Nothing skimpy about these. The ranch is a nice complement to the shredded chicken. The mound of bacon is held down by a thick gooey cheese layer. You get a bit of tang from the Dijon mustard. Brushing melted garlic butter on at the end is the perfect last touch. Serve these to friends and watch them disappear.
