Ingredients
Scale
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 12 sweet rolls (King’s Hawaiian or similar)
- 10 slices provolone cheese
- 14 ounces sliced deli roast beef
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 1/2 tablespoons dried onion soup mix
- 1 packet au jus gravy mix
- 3 cups water
- Fresh chopped parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Slice the sweet rolls horizontally through the middle and set aside the top section.
- In a skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium-low heat. Add the onion, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook for 20 to 25 minutes until caramelized.
- Melt 1/2 cup of unsalted butter for brushing over the sliders and keep it warm.
- Layer half of the provolone cheese on the bottom rolls, followed by the roast beef, caramelized onions, and the remaining cheese. Replace the top halves of the rolls.
- Brush the tops with melted butter and cover with foil. Bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.
- For the dipping sauce, combine the au jus gravy mix, onion soup mix, and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low for 5 to 10 minutes.
- Cut the sliders and serve with warm au jus for dipping garnished with parsley if desired.
Notes
Let caramelized onions cook slowly for best flavor and avoid overcrowding the pan. Adjust salt in au jus as needed.
