Steps
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190 °C) (190°C (375 °F)). Line a baking dish with parchment or lightly grease it. Leave the slider buns connected, if possible, and set them aside until the chicken is ready.
Pat the chicken dry. Season both sides with the salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder, rubbing the seasonings evenly over the meat.
Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet or sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for about 4–5 minutes per side, until browned and the thickest part reaches 165°F (74 °C) (74°C (165 °F)).
Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate and let it rest for 5 minutes. Shred it with two forks or with a stand mixer paddle on low speed.
Add the barbecue sauce and honey to the skillet. Stir over medium heat for 2–3 minutes, until hot, glossy, and evenly combined.
Return the shredded chicken to the sauce. Toss thoroughly until every piece is coated, then remove the pan from the heat.
Using a serrated knife, cut the connected slider buns horizontally so that the tops and bottoms remain in two slabs. Place the bottom slab in the prepared baking dish.
Spoon the honey BBQ chicken evenly over the bun bottoms. Spread it into an even layer so that each slider will contain chicken.
Arrange the provolone over the chicken, overlapping the slices slightly. Place the bun tops over the cheese.
Brush the melted butter over the tops of the buns and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Bake uncovered for 10–15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the bun tops are lightly golden. If the tops brown too quickly, cover the dish loosely with foil.
Garnish with chopped parsley, separate the sliders with a knife, and serve hot with any remaining honey BBQ sauce.
