One slider is cut in half and set on top, revealing layers inside: a soft, light tan bun on top, thin pale slices of turkey layered neatly in the middle, and creamy melted cheese beneath the meat, all sitting on a slightly toasted bottom bun.

Ingredients

  • 12 Hawaiian rolls
  • ¾ pound thin-sliced deli turkey
  • ¾ pound thin-sliced Swiss cheese
  • ½ cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
  • ½ tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ tablespoon everything bagel seasoning

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a 9×13-inch casserole dish with foil and spray the bottom with nonstick spray.
  2. Step 2: Without pulling the rolls apart, slice them in half horizontally. Place the bottom half of the rolls into the prepared casserole dish.
  3. Step 3: Layer the turkey evenly over the bottom half of the rolls, then add a layer of Swiss cheese on top.
  4. Step 4: Place the top halves of the rolls over the cheese layer.
  5. Step 5: Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl or on the stovetop. Stir in the Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and everything bagel seasoning.
  6. Step 6: Brush the butter mixture generously over the tops of the rolls. Let them sit for 5 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  7. Step 7: Cover the rolls with foil and bake for 30 to 35 minutes until warmed through and the cheese is melted. Remove the foil during the last 5 minutes to brown the tops slightly.
  8. Step 8: Serve the sliders warm and enjoy!

Tips & Variations

  • Substitute Swiss cheese with provolone or cheddar for a different flavor profile.
  • Add a few slices of pickles or a spread of mayonnaise for extra moisture and tang.
  • Use leftover roasted turkey instead of deli slices for a heartier texture.
  • If you don’t have everything bagel seasoning, a mix of sesame seeds, poppy seeds, garlic powder, and onion powder works well.

Storage

Store leftover sliders covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, cover with foil and warm in the oven at 350°F for about 15 minutes until heated through. Microwaving works too but may make the rolls a bit soggy.

FAQs

Can I make these sliders ahead of time?

Yes, you can assemble the sliders a few hours in advance, cover them tightly with foil, and bake when ready. Just add a few extra minutes to the baking time if baking straight from the fridge.

Can I freeze the turkey sliders?

These sliders freeze well after baking. Wrap them tightly in foil and plastic wrap, then freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat in the oven before serving.

Ingredients

Scale

Slider Components

  • 12 Hawaiian rolls
  • ¾ pound thin-sliced deli turkey
  • ¾ pound thin-sliced Swiss cheese

Butter Sauce

  • ½ cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
  • ½ tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ tablespoon everything bagel seasoning

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13-inch casserole dish with foil and spray the bottom with nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Slice Rolls: Without separating the rolls, slice them horizontally in half to create a top and bottom layer.
  3. Layer Bottom Rolls: Place the bottom halves of the rolls into the prepared casserole dish, forming the base.
  4. Add Turkey and Cheese Layers: Evenly layer the thinly sliced deli turkey over the bottom rolls, followed by a generous layer of Swiss cheese.
  5. Place Top Rolls: Cover the cheese with the top halves of the Hawaiian rolls, completing the slider assembly.
  6. Melt Butter Mixture: Melt the unsalted butter in a microwave-safe bowl or on the stovetop. Once melted, stir in Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and everything bagel seasoning until fully combined.
  7. Brush Butter Over Rolls: Generously brush the butter mixture over the tops of the rolls. Allow the rolls to sit for 5 minutes so they absorb the flavorful butter.
  8. Cover and Bake: Cover the casserole dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, which warms the sliders and melts the cheese thoroughly. Remove the foil during the last 5 minutes to allow the tops to brown slightly.
  9. Serve Warm: Remove from oven and serve the turkey sliders warm for best taste and texture.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, consider adding a slice of tomato or a leaf of lettuce inside the sliders before baking.
  • If you prefer, substitute Swiss cheese with cheddar or provolone for a different taste profile.
  • These sliders can be prepared a day ahead, assembled and refrigerated unbaked, then baked fresh before serving.
  • Use foil to line the casserole dish to make cleanup easy and prevent sticking.
  • Everything bagel seasoning adds a unique flavor, but you may adjust seasoning amounts to your preference or use garlic powder and sesame seeds as alternatives.
