  5. Place a slice of Swiss cheese and ham on each chicken piece, then transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 5 minutes until the cheese melts.
  6. Spread Dijon mustard on the bottom half of each slider bun, top with a chicken-cheese-ham stack, and cover with the bun top.

The magic of these sliders lies in the crispy, seasoned chicken paired with the creamy Swiss and savory ham, all hugged by a soft bun. It’s a crowd-pleaser that brings elegance to finger food.

Tip: For an extra crunch, toast the slider buns lightly before assembling.
