Name: Bar Chicks - Blackened Chicken Sliders
Cook time: 30 min
Yield: 4 servings
Cuisine: United Kingdom
Ingredients: Marinade:; 2 cups white wine; 2 tablespoons soy sauce; 1 tablespoon lime juice; 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce; 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, each cut into 4 pieces; Blackened seasoning:; 1 tablespoon salt; 2 teaspoons onion powder; 2 teaspoons white sugar; 1 teaspoon ground black pepper; 1 teaspoon ground white pepper; 2 teaspoons cayenne pepper; 1 teaspoon garlic powder; 1 teaspoon ground oregano; Chipotle aioli:; ½ cup mayonnaise; 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives; 1 clove garlic; 1 teaspoon lime juice; ½ teaspoon ground chipotle chile pepper; salt and ground black pepper to taste; Caramelized onion:; 1 tablespoon olive oil; 1 tablespoon butter; 1 large onion, cut into thin rings; 1 tablespoon butter; 1 tablespoon olive oil; cooking spray; 4 slices American cheese, cut into 4 strips

I liked these that a local restaurant chain made so much, I came up with my own take on this. Blackened chicken with a chipotle aioli and caramelized onion just complement each other well. These are good mini-sized or meal-sized. It’s easy to prep ingredients ahead of time and just cook the chicken when you are ready. For large sandwiches, cut each chicken breast into 2 pieces.

DIRECTION

Step: 1

Mix white wine, soy sauce, 1 tablespoon lime juice, and Worcestershire sauce together in a resealable bag; add chicken and seal bag. Marinate chicken in the refrigerator for 8 to 24 hours.

Step: 2

Mix 1 tablespoon salt, onion powder, sugar, 1 teaspoon ground black pepper, white pepper, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and oregano together in a bowl for the blackened seasoning; transfer to a shaker or an air-tight container.

Step: 3

Place mayonnaise, chives, garlic, 1 teaspoon lime juice, ground chipotle pepper, salt, and black pepper in a food processor; pulse together until chives are minced and aioli is smooth and evenly mixed. Transfer to an air-tight container and store in the refrigerator.

Step: 4

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter together in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low, and continue cooking and stirring until onion is very tender and dark brown, about 30 minutes more. Remove from heat.

Step: 5

Remove chicken from marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Spray chicken pieces with cooking spray and sprinkle all sides with blackened seasoning.

Step: 6

Heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet; cook chicken until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes per side.

Step: 7

Assemble sliders by layering a piece of chicken, a strip of Cheddar cheese, and a spoonful of caramelized onion onto the bottom of each bun. Place a dollop of aioli on the top portion of bun before placing atop onion layer, forming a sandwich.
