Step 1
Place the onion in a small bowl and cover with iced water. Set aside for 15 mins (this helps the onion flavour to mellow). Drain well.

Chicken sliders recipe
Most people’s (and restaurants’) definition of a slider is that it is a smaller burger that you can eat with just one hand. Unlike regular burgers, which generally require getting a little messy while eating them, sliders can be brought out at more elegant functions as hors d'oeuvres and entrées without having any guest turn their nose up at it. But even if you’re not catering for such an event, sliders are a great finger food option to feed a larger group at a games night, movie night or footy finals party at home. This chicken slider is guaranteed to be a favourite and you might need to double the recipe, as people are likely to grab seconds. Each buttery brioche bun is filled with juicy roast chicken, sweet pops of corn relish and corn kernels, and slathered with creamy and garlicky aioli.
How to serve BBQ chicken sliders
These sliders can be made when you need something fun and delicious for a potluck or social gathering. They are also great for events where you would like guests to walk around and mingle with one another, as it’s portable and easy to eat. You can always make this recipe and another slider variation, like our suggestions below, so you can offer friends and family several versions to choose from. That’s the beauty of the small size of sliders, you get to taste more than one! Here is what to serve with chicken sliders: you can choose from so many different sides, like hot chips, shoestring fries, sweet potato fries, crisps, onion rings, pickles, pasta salad, potato salad, wedges or a slaw of some kind. To wash it all down, why not make a refreshing watermelon and lime caipiroska punch or Mille Tang’s bright and bubbly cocktail?
How to store pulled chicken sliders
You can make these barbeque chicken sliders in advance. Get all the different fillings and elements ready, then store them separately in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 2 days. When you’re ready to serve, heat up the chicken in the microwave and assemble the sliders. It isn’t advisable to store any assembled sliders in the fridge, as there’s a possibility that the brioche buns will turn soggy.
