Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare a 7×11-inch baking dish by spraying it with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic powder, kosher salt, black pepper, crushed red pepper flakes, grated parmesan cheese, and shredded rotisserie chicken.
Fold in fresh baby spinach and mix until well combined.
Cut the king's Hawaiian sweet rolls in half horizontally and place the bottom halves in the prepared baking dish.
Spoon the chicken mixture evenly over the bottom half of the rolls and top with shredded monterey jack cheese.
Place the top halves of the rolls on the filled bottom halves.
In a small bowl, mix melted butter with minced garlic and pour it over the tops of the rolls.
Sprinkle fresh parsley on top.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for about 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and cheese is melted.

Notes

For additional flavor, consider adding sautéed onions or bell peppers.
These sliders can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator before baking.
Feel free to substitute the rotisserie chicken with shredded leftover chicken or turkey.
