Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by cutting boneless, skinless chicken breasts into slider-sized pieces, approximately 2-3 inches square.
  2. Set up your breading station by placing three shallow dishes in a row.
  3. Dredge each chicken piece in the flour mixture, ensuring a complete coating.
  4. After breading, let the chicken pieces rest for about 10-15 minutes at room temperature.
  5. In a large skillet, heat about an inch of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
  6. Carefully add the breaded chicken pieces to the hot oil.
  7. Once cooked, remove the crispy chicken from the skillet and place it on a wire rack.
  8. In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  9. If you desire a little extra crunch and warmth, lightly toast your slider buns.
  10. To assemble your Honey Mustard Chicken Sliders, spread a generous amount of the honey mustard sauce on the bottom half of each toasted bun.
