Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Place the boneless chicken breasts on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Sprinkle the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Bake the chicken breasts for about 20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
While the chicken is baking, melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
Add the Frank's RedHot Buffalo Wings Sauce to the melted butter and stir to combine. Keep the sauce warm on low heat.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly.
Using two forks, shred the chicken breasts into thin strips.
In a large bowl, toss the shredded chicken with the warm Buffalo sauce until the chicken is fully coated.
Prepare the lettuce leaves by washing and drying them, ensuring they form a cup-like shape for the sliders.
Chop the celery sticks into small, bite-sized pieces.
To assemble the sliders, place a generous amount of the Buffalo chicken mixture into each lettuce leaf.
Top the chicken with a sprinkle of blue cheese crumbles and some chopped celery for added crunch.
Serve immediately with a side of ranch dressing, if desired.
