Hot Ham and Cheese Sliders

Ingredients

For the compound butter


·         3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

 

·         1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

 

·         2 teaspoons minced shallots

 

·         2 teaspoons chopped parsley

 

·         1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

 

·         1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

 

For the sliders

 

·         1 (12-count package) Hawaiian slider rolls

 
 

 

·         1/2 pound sliced Swiss cheese, about 12 slices

 

·   1/2 pound thin-sliced deli ham

 

Method

 

Preheat the oven to 375°F.

Prepare the compound butter:

In a small bowl, combine the butter, mustard, shallots, parsley, salt, and black pepper with a fork. Reserve until ready to assemble.

 

Prepare the buns:

Using a serrated knife, cut the slider buns through the middle into two halves, dividing the tops and bottoms while keeping each slider bun connected.

 

Assemble the sliders:

Place the opened rolls on a sheet pan or baking dish, and evenly arrange half the Swiss cheese on the bottom bun. Top with the ham, overlapping slightly as you lay down each slice. Arrange the remaining slices of cheese on top of the ham, and close with the slider bun tops. 

Use a spoon or butter knife to smear the softened compound butter all over the tops of the sliders.

Bake the sliders:

Loosely cover the sliders with aluminum foil and bake for 10 minutes.

After 10 minutes, remove the foil and bake for another 5 minutes or until the tops of the sliders are crisp and golden brown. 

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.

Serve the sliders:

Tear or cut the sliders and serve warm.

 

Storage and reheating instructions:

Store remaining sliders in the fridge tightly covered. Leftovers will keep for up to 3 days. 

Reheat each sliders in the microwave for 30 seconds—add 15 seconds for each additional slider.

To reheat in the oven, bake for 8 to 10 minutes at 350°F, or until the cheese has melted and the sliders are crisp and heated through.
