Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken Sliders
Sliders are the ideal dish to serve to large parties of people, primarily because they leave plenty of room on the plate for small samplings of other dishes. This chicken slider recipe is packed full of flavor from spices to sauces, but given that it’s all cooked up in the slow cooker, it takes almost no effort to put together, leaving you plenty of time to focus on other key pieces of the setup process.
