Crack Chicken Sandwiches FAQs
What kind of cream cheese do I need to use?
You can use any brand of cream cheese, such as Kraft or TempTee, both of which have excellent taste. Both low-fat and full-fat cream cheese will work in this recipe.
Is it better to use fresh bacon or bacon bits?
If you want to save yourself some time, bacon bits work great. However, if you want that truly incredible taste that bacon can provide, I’d recommend using fresh bacon. You can prepare it in a pan or even bake it in the oven ahead of time, allowing it to cool down before breaking it into pieces and tossing it in with your chicken.
Do I have to add green onions?
While the green onions are a great addition to this dish, you can leave them out if you don’t have them or don’t like them.
Can I use other types of slider rolls?
Absolutely! You can use Hawaiian rolls or any other type of small slider roll you prefer.
