If you’re starting from scratch, cook and shred your chicken (see how to make a quick Instant Pot BBQ Pulled Chicken).

Toss the shredded chicken in your favorite BBQ sauce until fully coated. Warm it through on the stove or in the microwave if needed.

Slice your slider buns in half horizontally (keep the bottoms and tops connected if using a sheet of rolls). Place the bottom halves on a baking sheet or in a baking dish. Spread the BBQ pulled chicken evenly across the buns, then sprinkle with shredded or sliced cheddar cheese.

Place the top halves of the buns over the chicken and cheese to form the sliders.

Melt butter and mix in garlic powder (and optional parsley or seasoning). Brush generously over the tops of the buns.

Preheat your oven to 350°F. Bake the sliders uncovered for about 12–15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tops are golden and slightly crispy.
