Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 2 cups shredded corned beef (cooked)
- 1 ½ cups sauerkraut (drained)
- 3 tablespoons Thousand Island dressing
- 6 slices Swiss cheese
Rolls and Topping
- 12 Hawaiian sweet rolls
- ½ stick butter (4 tablespoons)
- ¼ teaspoon beef broth base
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
Instructions
- Preheat and prepare topping: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a small saucepan, melt the butter with the beef broth base, minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, and dried thyme, stirring to combine and create a flavorful butter mixture.
- Assemble sliders: Slice the Hawaiian rolls horizontally without separating the individual rolls; place the bottom half on a baking sheet. Evenly layer the shredded corned beef, drained sauerkraut, and Thousand Island dressing over the rolls. Then place the slices of Swiss cheese on top of the sauerkraut. Cover with the top half of the rolls.
- Add butter topping: Brush the prepared butter mixture generously over the top of the rolls, ensuring an even coating to help create a golden, flavorful crust as it bakes.
- Bake sliders: Place the assembled sliders in the preheated oven and bake for about 10 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the tops of the rolls are golden and slightly crispy.
- Serve: Remove from the oven, slice individual sliders apart carefully, and serve warm for the best taste experience.
Notes
- Ensure the sauerkraut is well drained to prevent the sliders from becoming soggy.
- If you prefer a spicier flavor, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the butter mixture.
- These sliders can be prepared ahead of time and baked just before serving to maintain freshness.
- Use fresh Hawaiian rolls for the best texture and flavor.
