Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 12 Hawaiian rolls (or slider buns)
- 1 lb deli-style roast beef, thinly sliced
- 8 slices cheddar cheese
Sauce and Flavor Enhancers:
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ¼ cup prepared horseradish sauce
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Seasoning and Topping:
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
Instructions
- Prepare the baking vessel by heating the oven to 350F (175C) and lining a 9×13-inch dish with parchment paper or greasing it thoroughly.
- Slice the Hawaiian rolls horizontally while keeping them connected, maintaining their structural integrity.
- Apply a delicate layer of mayonnaise across the bottom half of the connected rolls, ensuring even coverage.
- Distribute roast beef uniformly over the rolls, creating a consistent meat layer.
- Arrange cheddar cheese slices directly atop the roast beef, covering the entire surface.
- Spread horseradish sauce across the interior of the top roll half, then carefully position it over the cheese layer.
- Craft a flavorful glaze by whisking melted butter with Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and parsley until smooth and well-integrated.
- Generously brush the prepared glaze over the slider tops, ensuring complete and even coverage.
- Optionally sprinkle sesame seeds across the surface for added texture and visual appeal.
- Encase the sliders with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes, preserving moisture and heat.
- Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 5 minutes until the tops achieve a golden-brown finish and cheese melts completely.
- Allow sliders to rest for 5 minutes, enabling flavors to settle and making them easier to slice.
- Separate into individual portions and serve while warm for optimal taste and texture.
Notes
- Customize meat options by swapping roast beef with turkey, ham, or pulled chicken for varied flavors and dietary preferences.
- Reduce sodium content by using low-sodium deli meat and choosing reduced-fat cheese slices for a lighter version.
- Enhance gluten-free adaptability by selecting gluten-free Hawaiian rolls or using lettuce wraps as a bread alternative.
- Elevate vegetarian options by replacing roast beef with grilled portobello mushrooms or plant-based protein slices for a hearty alternative.
