Step 1

Season the chicken cutlets with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the root beer to a boil. Add the seasoned chicken cutlets, reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and let cook for 5 to 7 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temp of 165. Skim off any foam that forms on the surface of the liquid.

Step 3

Remove the chicken and the cooking liquid from the saucepan. Place the chicken in a medium bowl, and reserve the liquid in a separate bowl.

Step 4

Shred the chicken with two forks.

Step 5

Add the shredded chicken, BBQ sauce, and 1/4 of the reserved cooking liquid back to the saucepan. Reduce the heat to medium, stir, and simmer for 3 to 5 minutes or until the chicken is heated through and the sauce has thickened.

Step 6

Wrap the slider buns in a damp paper towel and microwave for 15 seconds or until warm.

Step 7

To serve, spread the bottom halves of the buns with mayonnaise and top with 1/4 cup of shredded chicken.
