Ingredients
Sliders
- 12 Hawaiian slider rolls
- 1 lb sliced turkey (deli or leftover roast turkey)
- 10–12 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
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Brush Topping: Generously brush the prepared buttery mixture over the tops of the slider rolls, ensuring each slider is coated well for maximum flavor.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
