Total Time: 45 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 sliders
Ingredients
- 1 lb roast beef, thinly sliced
- 2 large onions, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 12 slider buns
- 1 cup provolone cheese, shredded
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- Begin by preparing all your ingredients. Thinly slice the roast beef and onions. Set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the sliced onions.
- Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, for about 15-20 minutes or until they are golden brown and caramelized. If the onions start to stick to the pan, you can add a splash of water to deglaze.
- Once the onions are caramelized, season them with salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- While the onions are finishing, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced roast beef with the caramelized onions. Mix well to ensure the beef is coated with the flavorful onions.
- Slice the slider buns in half horizontally, keeping the tops and bottoms connected. Place the bottom halves of the buns in a greased baking dish.
- Evenly distribute the roast beef and caramelized onion mixture over the bottom halves of the buns.
- Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded provolone cheese over the beef and onions, ensuring even coverage.
- Place the top halves of the buns over the cheese, gently pressing down to secure the sliders.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 15 minutes.
- After 15 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tops of the buns are golden brown.
- Once done, remove the sliders from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Slice the sliders into individual portions and serve warm. Enjoy your delicious caramelized onion roast beef sliders!
Tips
- Choose the Right Roast Beef: Opt for high-quality, thinly sliced roast beef for the best flavor and texture. Deli-style roast beef works wonderfully for these sliders.
- Caramelize with Care: Patience is key when caramelizing onions. Cook them on medium heat and stir occasionally to avoid burning. A splash of water can help deglaze the pan if they start to stick.
- Customize Your Cheese: While provolone cheese is delicious, feel free to experiment with other cheeses like mozzarella or cheddar for a different flavor profile.
- Prepare Ahead: You can prepare the caramelized onions and roast beef mixture a day in advance. Just assemble the sliders and bake them when you're ready to serve.
- Serve with Dipping Sauces: Elevate your sliders by serving them with a side of horseradish sauce or a tangy dipping sauce for an extra kick.
- Keep an Eye on the Oven: Ovens can vary, so keep an eye on your sliders during the final baking stage to ensure the tops don’t over-brown.With these tips, your Caramelized Onion Roast Beef Sliders are sure to impress and delight your guests!
