Method

Prepare the Chicken Patties: In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well with clean hands or a spoon.
Shape the Patties: Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and form each portion into a slider-sized patty.
Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
Air Fry the Patties: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil. Place the chicken patties in the air fryer basket, ensuring they aren’t overcrowded. You may need to cook them in batches.
Cook the Patties: Air fry for 12-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Flip halfway through cooking.
Assemble the Sliders: While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the slider buns.
Add Sauce and Cheese: Once the patties are cooked, top each patty with marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese, return to the air fryer and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve: Place each cheesy chicken parmesan patty on a slider bun and serve immediately.
