Instructions

1- Marinate the Chicken:

In a bowl, mix milk, hot sauce, pickle juice, Sweet Applewood Flavored Seasoning, Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning, and Kinder's All-Purpose Seasoning.
Add chicken breasts, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.

2- Prepare the Coating:

In a separate bowl, combine flour, corn starch, Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning, and Kinder's All-Purpose Seasoning.

3- Dredge the Chicken:

Remove the chicken from the marinade and dredge in the flour mixture, pressing down to ensure an even coating.

4- Fry the Chicken:

Heat oil in a frying pan until hot.
Fry the chicken pieces until golden brown and cooked through, approximately 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

5- Make the Sauce:

In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat.
Add brown sugar, hot sauce, and honey. Stir and simmer until the mixture thickens slightly.

6- Assemble the Sliders:

Slice Hawaiian sweet rolls in half.
Spread aioli on the bottom halves. Place a piece of fried chicken on each and drizzle with the prepared sauce. Top with the other half of the rolls.
