These Southwestern Chicken Sliders cooked up perfectly and they are moist and delicious.

I made homemade no-knead cheddar slider buns for the mini chicken burgers and topped each chicken slider off AirFryer cooked bell peppers and a tablespoon of homemade Sriracha Mayonnaise.

These easy southwestern flavored mini chicken burgers are delicious and the spiciness of the sriracha mayonnaise adds just the right amount of spicy heat to take these chicken sliders to the next level of chicken burger heaven.

Southwestern Chicken Sliders Ingredients

  • 1 lb. ground chicken
  • ¼ cup black beans, rinsed, drained and roughly chopped
  • ¼ cup corn kernels
  • ¼ cup finely diced onion
  • 1 ½ teaspoons seasoned salt
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha hot sauce
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cumin

Slider Directions

  1. In a bowl place all the ingredients and mix well.
  2. Form 10 mini patties.
  3. Place the patties on a cookie sheet and chill until ready to cook.
  4. Heat the Air Fryer to 360 degrees.
  5. Place the patties in a single layer into the basket of the Airfryer.
  6. Turn the timer dial to 12 minutes and cook. Check for done-ness with an instant read meat thermometer when the timer goes off. Chicken patties are cooked completely when the internal temp of the thickest section reaches 165 Fahrenheit. If the patties are not completely cooked slide the basket back into the AirFryer and cook for 2 to 3 minutes longer.
  7. Once the patties are cooked place a slice of cheese on each chicken patty and slide the basket back into the AirFryer without turning it on. After a few minutes check to see if the cheese has melted. Once the cheese has melted place each chicken slider on a slider bun and top with your favorite toppings.
  8. Make 10 mini chicken burgers or 5 regular size chicken burgers.

Siracha Mayo Ingredients

  • ½ cup mayo
  • 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cumin

Directions

Mix all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Spread about a tablespoon of mayo on each Southwestern Chicken Slider before serving.
