Instructions
Marinate the Chicken
In a bowl, mix the milk and apple cider vinegar. Add the chicken pieces and let marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator.
Pro tip: For an even stronger flavor, let it marinate overnight.
Prepare the Coating
In another bowl, mix the flour and cajun spices. Drain the chicken and coat each piece in flour.
Pro tip: Make sure the chicken is well-coated for a crispy crust.
Fry the Chicken
Heat the oil in a deep fryer or large skillet to 350°F. Fry the chicken pieces until golden and crispy, about 5-7 minutes.
Pro tip: Do not overcrowd the pan to avoid lowering the oil temperature.
Prepare the BBQ Sauce
In a saucepan, mix the BBQ sauce, honey, lemon juice, and cayenne pepper. Heat over low until the mixture is warmed through.
Pro tip: Taste and adjust the honey or cayenne to your liking.
Assemble the Sliders
On each mini bun, place a piece of fried chicken, add some BBQ sauce, and top with red cabbage, pickles, and cheddar cheese if desired.
Pro tip: For maximum flavor, add a bit of BBQ sauce on top of the bun as well.
Serve
Serve the sliders hot, garnished with chopped cilantro for a fresh touch.
Pro tip: Pair them with crispy fries or a salad for a complete meal.
