Ingredients
Scale
Slider Layers
- 12 Hawaiian rolls
- 3/4 pound thin-sliced deli turkey
- 3/4 pound thin-sliced Swiss cheese
Butter Topping
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
- 1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a 9×13-inch casserole dish with foil and spray the bottom with nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
- Slice Rolls and Layer Base: Without pulling the rolls apart, slice them horizontally in half. Place the bottom halves of the 12 Hawaiian rolls into the prepared casserole dish, forming the base layer.
- Add Turkey and Cheese Layers: Layer the 3/4 pound thin-sliced deli turkey evenly over the bottom half of the rolls, then add the 3/4 pound thin-sliced Swiss cheese on top of the turkey.
- Top with Roll Halves: Place the top halves of the rolls onto the cheese layer, covering the filling completely.
- Prepare Butter Mixture: Melt 1/2 cup unsalted butter in a microwave-safe bowl or on the stovetop in a saucepan. Stir in 1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1/2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and 1/2 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning until well combined.
- Brush Butter Mixture: Generously brush the butter mixture over the top halves of the rolls. Let the assembled sliders sit for 5 minutes so the rolls can absorb some of the flavorful butter.
- Bake the Sliders: Cover the casserole dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Then remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes to allow the tops to brown and the cheese to melt thoroughly.
- Serve Warm: Remove the sliders from the oven and serve warm as a delicious appetizer or meal option.
Notes
- For appetizers, plan on serving 1-2 sliders per person; for a meal, 3 sliders per person is recommended.
- Store leftover sliders in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- For longer storage, freeze the sliders in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months and reheat before serving.
- Using Hawaiian rolls adds a sweet and soft contrast to the savory turkey and cheese, but you can substitute with dinner rolls if preferred.
- Everything bagel seasoning can be substituted with sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or a garlic herb blend for variation.
