French Dip Sliders

Ingredients

• For the sliders:

  • 12 slider rolls (Hawaiian rolls or dinner rolls)
  • 1 lb deli roast beef, thinly sliced
  • 12 slices provolone cheese
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
    
    

• For the au jus dipping sauce:

  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
    
    

     Instructions

1. Preheat Oven: Set to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking dish with foil or parchment paper.

2. Assemble Sliders: Slice the slider rolls in half horizontally, keeping the bottoms and tops intact. Place the bottom half in the prepared dish. Layer with half the provolone cheese, all the roast beef, and the remaining provolone. Cover with the top half of the rolls.

3. Prepare Butter Mixture: In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Brush evenly over the tops of the rolls.

4. Bake: Cover loosely with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes until the tops are golden brown and cheese is melted.

5. Make Au Jus: While sliders bake, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Sauté garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes, then strain if desired.

6. Serve: Cut sliders apart and serve warm with au jus on the side for dipping.
