I first made easy buffalo chicken sliders on a weekend when friends showed up hungry and I had to think fast. I had leftover chicken, a bottle of buffalo sauce, and some rolls sitting on the counter.

So I threw everything together and hoped it worked.

Then, once they came out of the oven, that buttery, spicy smell filled the whole kitchen. Let me tell you, those easy buffalo chicken sliders were gone in minutes.

Now, I keep this recipe on repeat because easy buffalo chicken sliders never fail me.

Also, when I want to round out the meal, I serve them with air fryer sweet potato fries for a sweet and spicy combo.

Then, for something extra on the table, I’ll add air fryer jalapeño poppers for a little kick.
