directions
Step 1
Slice the chicken breast into thin cutlets that fit snugly on your slider rolls. Prep your breadcrumb stations! In one bowl, whisk the egg whites until frothy. In another bowl, get your breadcrumbs ready.
Step 2
Dip each chicken cutlet in the egg whites, letting the eggy goodness hug every corner. Then, roll them in the breadcrumbs, making sure they get a nice, even coating.
Step 3
Line up your breaded chicken in your air fryer basket. Set your air fryer for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Step 4
While your chicken sizzles, toast your slider rolls if you prefer them warm and fluffy. Prepare your lettuce and pickle slices, getting ready to assemble your sliders.
Step 5
Once the chicken is cooked through and golden brown, carefully remove them from the air fryer and let them cool for a minute or two.

how to make this lower carb

how to make this low fat or healthier
Keep the air fryer magic and skip the breading altogether! Season your chicken with your favorite spices and let the air fryer work its crispy wonders. Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a light drizzle of olive oil for a simple, flavorful, and low-fat spread on your Gluten Free Sliders.
how to make this vegan
Swap the chicken breast for portobello mushroom “steaks” seasoned with soy sauce and maple syrup. Coat them in a mixture of crushed gluten-free crackers and nutritional yeast for an irresistible savory, crispy crust.
how to serve, store and meal prep
- Storing: Cool cooked Gluten Free Sliders completely before storing. Place them in an airtight container or wrap individually in plastic wrap. They’ll stay fresh in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Reheating: For crispy goodness, reheat in the air fryer at 375°F for 5-7 minutes, or until warmed through. Alternatively, bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 10-12 minutes. If your bread is dry, brush with a little oil or water before reheating.
- Portions: Make a double batch and assemble individual Gluten Free Sliders ahead of time. Wrap each one tightly in plastic wrap or store in an airtight container. They’ll keep for up to 3 days in the fridge, perfect for grab-and-go lunches or quick dinners.
- Tips: To prevent the bread from getting soggy, store the toppings separately and assemble just before eating. Consider pre-chopping any veggies you’ll use as toppings.
