ingredients
8 chicken tenderloins
2 slices provolone cheese (¼ slice per slider)
¾ medium onion, sliced
2 cups spinach
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
8 slider buns
½ teaspoon kosher salt
15 – 20 cracks black pepper
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
directions
Step 1:
Season the tenderloins with salt, pepper, onion and garlic powders, and bake them in the oven at 375°F for about 15 - 18 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Step 2:
While your chicken bakes, cook your sliced onions in a pan with some olive oil spray over medium - low heat until they start to caramelize, about 7 - 9 minutes. While your onions are caramelizing, get your buns toasting!
Step 3:
Next, add the spinach to the onions and mix in until it starts to wilt. Add balsamic vinegar and mix until well incorporated. Cook for about a minute. Turn off heat.
Step 4:
Divide mixture into eight stacks and add a ¼ slice of provolone to each stack.
The melted cheese will hold the stacks together.
Step 5:
When everything is ready, start assembling! Start with the chicken on the bottom half of the bun.
I used one tenderloin per slider and cut them in half to fit the bun.
Step 6:
Top with onions, spinach, and provolone mixture, and top bun. Enjoy!
