How to Make It
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350F/180C, line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and grate the mozzarella cheese. Add 1 ½ cups mozzarella cheese and cream cheese to a microwave-safe bowl and transfer the bowl to the microwave for about 30 seconds to 1 minutes until the mozzarella cheese is fully melted. Once melted, combine the warm cheese together using a spatula to form a thick paste.
Step 2
Add the almond flour, baking powder, and eggs to the cheese mixture. Mix until a smooth dough forms. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Step 3
Meanwhile, make the chicken filling; Thinly shred the red cabbage and set it aside. In a medium-sized bowl, add the chicken, buffalo sauce, and 2 tbsp melted butter. Mix to combine and set aside.
Step 4
Divide the chilled dough into 8 balls and arrange them on the baking sheet lined with parchment paper with no distance between them. Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until fluffy, slightly golden, and well cooked.
Step 5
Slice the rolls in half and layer the shredded cabbage, followed by the chicken mixture and the remaining grated cheese; then, place the top layer of the dinner rolls onto the chicken layer. In a small bowl, mix together the dried parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, dried dill, salt, black pepper, and 1 tbsp butter. Brush the seasoned butter over the tops of the rolls.
Step 6
Transfer the rolls to the oven and bake at 180C/350F for 10 minutes until the cheese is melted. If the tops of the rolls begin to brown too quickly, cover them with aluminum foil. Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving.
Step 7
Serve warm with any Keto sauce of your choosing. These buffalo chicken sliders pair well with zucchini fries or a fresh green salad. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
