Ingredients

• 1 Pack of White Castle Jalapeño Cheese Sliders (frozen)

• Extra sliced jalapeños for more heat

• A drizzle of chipotle mayo or sriracha for added spice

• Pickles or crispy fried onions for crunch

• A sprinkle of smoked paprika or garlic powder for extra flavor

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer

Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and let it preheat for about 3-5 minutes. This ensures even heating while keeping the sliders soft and juicy.

Step 2: Prepare the Frozen Sliders

1. Remove the sliders from the packaging and separate them.

2. Keep them together in pairs or individually, depending on basket space.

3. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray (optional) to prevent sticking.

Step 3: Air Fry the Sliders

• Cook at 375°F for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through for even heating.

• For Extra Toasty Buns: Remove the top buns for the last 2 minutes and place them cut side up to crisp slightly.

Step 4: Serve & Enjoy

• Carefully remove the sliders from the air fryer and let them cool for 1 minute before serving.

• Add extra jalapeños, hot sauce, or chipotle mayo for even more heat.

How to Serve White Castle Jalapeño Cheese Sliders

• Classic Fast-Food Style: Serve with fries and a side of ranch or queso dip.

• Loaded Sliders: Top with extra melted cheese, pickles, and crispy onions.

• Spicy Kick: Drizzle with hot honey or ghost pepper sauce.

Pro Tips for Best Results

• Don’t overcrowd the basket—cook in batches if needed.

• Flip the sliders halfway through cooking for even heating.

• For a crispier bun, remove the top bun for the last 2 minutes of cooking.

• Want extra melty cheese? Add an extra slice in the last minute of cooking.
