Ingredients

2 tsp vegetable oil
1 large jalapeno pepper
1 clove garlic
4 oz cream cheese
1/4 cup sour cream
2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
1 cup shredded monterey jack cheese
8 slider rolls
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
3 tbsp butter
1/4 cup cooked and crumbled bacon

Steps

Heat the oven to 375 F and grease a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with the vegetable oil.
Cook the chopped jalapeno and garlic in the pan over medium heat for 3 minutes.
Stir in the cream cheese and sour cream until smooth, then fold in the chicken, Monterey Jack, and bacon.
Slice the slider rolls across the middle and place the bottoms in the baking pan.
Spread the chicken mixture over the rolls and replace the tops.
Melt the butter, stir in the panko, and sprinkle the crumbs over the rolls.
Check that the thickest part of the poultry reaches 165 F before serving.
Bake for 10 minutes, until hot and the cheese is melted.
