How to Store Bang Bang Chicken Sliders
If you have any leftovers (which is rare!), you can store the chicken filling in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. To keep the slider buns fresh, store them separately. When you’re ready to enjoy the leftovers, simply reheat the chicken in the microwave and assemble your sliders again.
