These delicious sliders combine tender turkey, melted Swiss or provolone cheese, and a savory buttery topping on soft Hawaiian rolls, making them an irresistible crowd-pleaser.

  • Total Time: 30 mins
  • Yield: 12 sliders

Ingredients

Sliders

  • 12 Hawaiian slider rolls
  • 1 lb sliced turkey (deli or leftover roast turkey)
  • 1012 slices Swiss or provolone cheese

Buttery Topping

  • 3 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp poppy seeds (optional)
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • ½ tsp garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to prepare it for the sliders.
  2. Prepare the Rolls: Slice the Hawaiian slider rolls in half horizontally. Place the bottom halves evenly in the greased baking dish, creating a base layer.
  3. Layer Turkey and Cheese: Evenly layer the sliced turkey over the bottom rolls, then add a layer of Swiss or provolone cheese slices on top of the turkey. Finally, place the top halves of the rolls back on, forming complete sandwiches.
  4. Mix Topping: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, dried parsley, and poppy seeds (if using). Stir well to create a flavorful buttery mixture.
  5. Brush Topping: Generously brush the prepared buttery mixture over the tops of the slider rolls, ensuring each slider is coated well for maximum flavor.
  6. Bake Covered: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. This step allows the cheese to melt thoroughly and the flavors to meld.
  7. Bake Uncovered: Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 5 to 7 minutes. This final step browns and crisps the tops to a golden finish.
  8. Serve Warm: Once baked, slice the sliders individually and serve warm for best taste and texture. Enjoy these delicious oven-baked turkey and cheese sliders as an appetizer or main dish!

Notes

  • Use leftover Thanksgiving turkey for a holiday variation with rich, familiar flavors.
  • Substitute turkey with ham, roast beef, or cooked chicken to suit your taste preferences.
  • Sliders can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated; bake just before serving to save time.
  • For extra crispiness, you can broil the sliders for 1–2 minutes at the end, watching carefully to prevent burning.
