Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 sliders
Ingredients
- 12 slider buns
- 1 pound thinly sliced roast beef
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- Butter for brushing
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will ensure that your sliders are perfectly toasted and warm when served.
- In a medium saucepan, heat the beef broth over medium heat until it begins to simmer. This will be used for dipping the sliders later.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the thinly sliced roast beef with the onion powder and garlic powder. Toss the beef until it's evenly coated with the spices, enhancing the flavor of the meat.
- Take the slider buns and slice them in half horizontally, creating a top and bottom for each slider. Arrange the bottom halves of the buns in a baking dish or on a baking sheet.
- Layer the seasoned roast beef evenly over the bottom halves of the slider buns. Make sure to distribute the meat well to ensure each slider has a good amount of beef.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the roast beef. The cheese will melt beautifully during baking, adding a delicious gooey texture.
- Place the top halves of the slider buns over the cheese, gently pressing down to secure the sliders.
- In a small bowl, melt a few tablespoons of butter. Use a brush to generously coat the tops of the slider buns with the melted butter. This will help them achieve a golden-brown color while baking.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for about 10 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the tops are golden and the cheese is melted.
- Once done, remove the sliders from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. This will make them easier to handle.
- While the sliders cool, give the beef broth a quick stir and pour it into small dipping bowls.
- Carefully cut the sliders into individual pieces and serve warm with the beef broth on the side for dipping. Enjoy your Easy French Dip Sliders!
Tips
- Choose Quality Ingredients: Opt for high-quality roast beef and fresh slider buns for the best flavor and texture. The better the ingredients, the tastier your sliders will be!
- Customize Your Cheese: While mozzarella is a classic choice, feel free to experiment with other cheeses like provolone or pepper jack for a little extra kick.
- Add Extra Flavor: Consider adding sautéed onions or bell peppers to the roast beef mixture for an extra layer of flavor. You can also sprinkle some fresh herbs like thyme or parsley on top before serving.
- Make Ahead: You can prepare the sliders in advance by assembling them and storing them in the refrigerator. Just pop them in the oven when you’re ready to serve for a quick and easy meal.
- Serve with Style: Present your sliders on a large platter with the beef broth in small bowls for dipping. This not only looks appealing but also makes it easy for guests to grab their sliders and dip away!
- Watch the Baking Time: Keep an eye on the sliders as they bake to prevent them from getting too brown. You want them golden and crispy, but not burnt!
- Experiment with Dipping Sauces: While beef broth is traditional, consider serving with horseradish sauce or a spicy aioli for a fun twist!
