Turkey Slider Ingredients

Hawaiian Sweet Rolls– Kings Hawaiian rolls are great. Aldi also has a great Hawaiian roll as well. Can’t find them try dinner rolls.
Turkey– Leftover turkey or sliced deli turkey.
Cheese– Slice Havarti or Swiss.
Mayonnaise– optional but adds a great creaminess. Skipping mayo try a spicy mustard instead.
Buttery Sauce– to brush over the tops of the sliders with melted unsalted butter, Worcestershire sauce, dijon mustard, everything seasoning, garlic powder, salt and pepper.

How To Make Turkey Sliders

Preheat oven to 350º F. Slice Hawaiian Rolls in half using a serrated knife. Separating the tops and bottom rolls.
Place bottom of the rolls into a greased pan and spread a thin layer of mayonnaise.
Layer cheese slices overlapping until covering the rolls completely.
Then add a layer of turkey on top of the cheese.
Place the remaining tops of your Hawaiian sweet rolls on top of the turkey.
In a small bowl mix together melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, dijon mustard, everything seasoning, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Pour on top of buns. Use a brush to spread mixture evenly if needed.
Bake at 350º F for 15-20 minutes. Bake until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Let rest for 5-10 minutes and enjoy!

Variations & Substitutions

Don’t like mayonnaise? Skip it. This has such a great flavor with the melted butter sauce baked into the bread it doesn’t need it. Or add a thin layer of spicy brown mustard.

Want to use other meats? This recipe works great with ham, chicken, pastrami, corned beef or roast beef.

Hawaiian sweet rolls can be substituted for dinner rolls. If you do this add a tablespoon of honey to your buttery sauce.

If you are making this after thanksgiving add in some leftover cranberry sauce and stuffing.

How to store leftovers

Refrigerate in an air tight container for up to 3 days. Leftovers are best served warm.

How to reheat turkey sliders

My favorite way to reheat these is in the air fryer at 350º for about 5 minutes. Make sure to keep an eye on them. You can also microwave the sliders in 30 second increments until heated through.
