# Instructions:
01 -
Turn your oven to 375°F and grease a 9×13-inch pan with a little butter or oil. Open the slider pack and place it on a cutting board. Use a serrated knife to gently slice the entire block of rolls horizontally in half while keeping the buns connected, holding the top steady with your hand. Move the bottom half into the greased pan.

Mix together the melted butter, parsley, and minced garlic in a small bowl. Put it aside for later.

Spread half of the pesto on the bottom bun in the pan. Add a layer of shredded chicken, then sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top. Spread the rest of the pesto over the inside of the upper bun half, then sandwich it all together by placing it back on top, cut side down.

Coat the tops of the rolls with the garlic butter mix. Add some salt and pepper if you'd like. Cover lightly with foil and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the foil, then bake another 5-10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and fully melted.
