Vibrant sliders fitting perfectly in your hand: golden, slightly charred at the edges, cheesy looking cauliflower rounds, served with smoky chicken strips peeking from within, garnished with shreds of green lettuce and vibrant red cherry tomato halves. A smudge of the pinkish smoky mayo is artfully smeared on the serving board, and a light sprinkle of flaky sea salt and pepper completes the frame.
