Roast Beef and Swiss Sliders
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons plus 1 stick butter, divided
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 24 mini ciabatta rolls, sliced in half
- 1 pound shredded roast beef (I prefer the Cajun roast beef)
- 12 slices baby Swiss, cut in half
- 2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onions
- 1 tablespoon Lea & Perrins (Worcestershire sauce)
- 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Coarse black pepper
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Using 2 tablespoons butter, grease two 13x9x2-inch baking dishes. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise and mustard. Place the bottom half of each roll in prepared dishes (they should fit snugly); spread evenly with mayonnaise mixture. Layer equal amounts of roast beef and 1 piece of cheese on top. Cover with the top half of each roll. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine reserved 1 stick butter, green onions, Lea & Perrins, brown sugar and garlic powder. Cover and microwave on high until butter is melted. Brush the tops of each roll with butter mixture. Pour the rest evenly over the sliders.* Sprinkle pepper over the tops of the sliders. Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking until tops are golden brown, 5-10 minutes more. Makes 24 appetizer servings.
MAKE AHEAD. At this point, sliders can be covered and refrigerated until ready to bake.
