Ingredients

  • 2 large sweet potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch thick rounds
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
  • 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato rounds with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  • Arrange the sweet potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping the slices halfway through, until tender and caramelized on the edges.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the shredded chicken with the barbecue sauce until fully incorporated.
  • Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and top each round with a portion of the barbecue chicken mixture.
  • Return the sliders to the oven for an additional 5 to 7 minutes to heat the chicken through.
