Small Bite Night - Buffalo Chicken Sliders

Small  bite night has come and gone once again.  This time around, it we did sliders, Buffalo Chicken Sliders and a meatball slider.  Both delicious in their own way, but the buffalo chicken slider was hands down my favorite and Rigby's too.  I started by heavily seasoning two boneless, skinless chicken breasts with salt and pepper and then cooked them until they were done.  After a brief rest period, the chicken is shredded and then mixed with sour cream and hot sauce.  I started out with and 1/8 of a cup of hot sauce and added about another half of an 1/8 cup of hot sauce. 

I'm telling you, these taste like buffalo wings, only in slider form.  The slider is topped with some thinly sliced celery and the blue cheese is mixed into the sour cream and hot sauce.  They're pretty darn tasty.
