Ingredients

1/2 cup butter divided
1/2 cup Frank's Red Hot more to taste
2 cups cooked, shredded or chopped chicken
3 tablespoons dry ranch seasoning divided
6 slices cheddar cheese
12 King's Hawaiian Rolls
prepared ranch dressing or blue cheese for serving

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Add 1/4 cup of butter to a small sauce pan over medium heat and melt.
Stir in the Frank's Red Hot to combine. Remove from the heat.
Add the chicken to the pan along with 2 tablespoons of ranch seasoning. Stir to coat chicken.
Use a bread knife to slice the rolls in half to form sandwich buns. Place the bottom half of the rolls in a 9x13 baking dish.
Top each roll with the chicken mixture and a half of a slice of the cheddar cheese.
Place the top halves of the rolls over the chicken.
Melt the remaining 1/4 cup of butter over low heat. Stir in the remaining tablespoon of ranch seasoning until well combined. Spoon the mixture evenly over the tops of each roll.
Bake uncovered for 15 minutes or until heated through and rolls are golden brown.
Serve with prepared ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing for dipping.

Notes

Cheese: We're calling for sliced cheddar, but shredded cheddar, mozzarella, or crumbled blue cheese will also work great here.

Sauce: We always have butter and Frank's on hand, so we use that to make a simple buffalo sauce. If you have a bottle of buffalo sauce in the fridge, feel free to substitute that. Use more or less sauce to taste, depending on your spice preferences.

Slider Rolls: I'm obsessed with the sweet Hawaiian rolls paired with the spicy chicken, but you can use any type of bun or bread here
