Recipes inspired by The Midnight Library
Servings: 16 sliders
Calories: 279kcal
Ingredients
- 4 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup pickle juice
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp water
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1 cup panko bread crumbs
- 1 cup parmesan cheese grated
- 16 pickle chips
- 2 oz blue cheese
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 tsp worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 16 Hawaiian buns
Instructions
- Slice each of the boneless skinless chicken breasts into 4 tenders.
- Place the chicken breasts into a ziploc bag or a 13x9 glass pan. Cover with the pickle juice. Place in the refigerator for at least 2 hours.
- Heat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- In one medium sized bowl big enough to dip chicken, mix the 2 eggs and 1 tablespoon of water.
- In a second bowl, mix the flour, salt, pepper and garlic powder.
- In a third bowl, mix the panko and parmesan cheese.
- Pat the chicken dry with a paper towel. Dredge a chicken piece in the flour mixture then shake off the excess.
- Dip into the egg and dunk until covered in egg. Remove with a fork and place into the breadcrumb cheese mixture. Coat completely in the breadcrumbs, patting them in place to make them stick to the chicken.
- Place onto the prepared baking sheet and repeat with the rest of the chicken.
- Bake the chicken for 24-30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Pull from the oven and let rest 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, slice the Hawaiian buns in half and set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix together the blue cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
- Place one tender on the bottom sides of each bun. Top with pickles, blue cheese mixture and the rest of the buns. Serve immediately. Enjoy!!

“I have met others like us,’ Hugo said. ‘You see, I have been in the in-between state for a long time. I have encountered a few other sliders. That’s what I call them. Us. We are sliders. We have a root life in which we are lying somewhere, unconscious, suspended between life and death, and then we arrive in a place. And it is always something different. A library, a video store, an art gallery, a casino, a restaurant . . .”
