Ingredients
- 1 (24-pack) Hawaiian slider rolls
- 1 (1 ½ -pound bag) frozen cooked breaded Chicken tenderloins, thawed

Directions
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Place the bottom half of the slider buns in a greased 10-inch x 13-inch casserole dish and lightly brush on a ½ cup of marinara sauce, top with chicken tenderloins, and then cover evenly with remaining sauce.
Combine the shredded Frigo® Fresh Mozzarella Cheese and all but ¼ cup of Frigo® Fresh Shredded Parmesan Cheese and sprinkle it over the sauce.
Place the top buns on the sliders.
Melt the butter in a small bowl in the microwave for 40 seconds or until melted. Mix the plain panko style breadcrumbs, remaining Frigo® Fresh Shredded Parmesan Cheese, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning until thoroughly combined.
With a pastry brush, spread the melted butter mixture evenly over the top buns.
Cover the dish with foil and bake the sliders until the cheese is fully melted, about 25 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for another 5 minutes or until the tops of the rolls are lightly browned.
Remove from oven and allow to cool for at least 5 minutes and then enjoy garnished with extra Frigo® Fresh Shredded Parmesan Cheese and chopped fresh parsley!
