Start by preparing your chicken cutlets. Heat about an inch of canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, which typically takes about 5-7 minutes. Carefully add the chicken cutlets to the hot oil, frying them for about 3-4 minutes per side or until they are golden brown and crispy. Ensure they are cooked through and no longer pink in the center. Once done, transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
While the chicken is frying, it’s time to whip up the Bang Bang sauce that will elevate your Bang Bang Chicken Sliders. In a mixing bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sriracha, sweet chili sauce, and honey. Adjust the sriracha according to your spice preference for the perfect balance of heat and sweetness. Once well combined, cover the bowl and refrigerate the sauce to let the flavors meld together while your chicken finishes cooking.
Assemble your sliders as soon as your chicken cutlets are ready. Start by placing a crispy cutlet on the bottom half of each slider bun. Immediately top the hot chicken with a slice of mozzarella cheese, allowing it to melt slightly from the heat. Drizzle a generous amount of your prepared Bang Bang sauce over the cheese, ensuring every bite will be packed with that sweet and spicy flavor.
To serve your Bang Bang Chicken Sliders, place the top half of the slider buns over the sauced cutlets. You can either serve them as they are or offer extra Bang Bang sauce on the side as a delightful dipping option for your guests. These sliders are best enjoyed immediately while the chicken is crisp, the cheese is warm, and the sauce is fresh and vibrant—perfect for any gathering or a cozy night in!
