Cuban Sliders
Description
This recipe layers thin slices of deli ham and Swiss cheese inside split slider rolls, topped with crisp slices of pickles. The rolls are brushed with a mixture of melted butter and garlic powder before baking, which crisps and flavors the tops. Baking covered briefly ensures the cheese melts thoroughly, then uncovered for a golden finish.
The contrast between the warm, tender sliders and pickles’ acidity and crunch provides a classic flavor combination reminiscent of Cuban sandwiches. Chopped parsley added after baking brightens the presentation, and yellow mustard on the side provides additional tang.
Slider-style rolls such as potato or Hawaiian rolls work well as they stay soft but hold fillings. Using quality deli ham, such as smoked or honey ham, enhances the overall taste. These sliders are best served hot immediately after baking when cheese is melted and bread is crisp.
Ingredients
- 12 dinner bread rolls such as potato rolls or Hawaiian rolls
- 12 ounces swiss cheese thinly sliced
- 16 ounces ham thinly sliced, deli
- 1 1/2 cups pickles sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon parsley chopped
- yellow mustard for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Slice the rolls in half crosswise and arrange the bottom halves of the rolls on a baking sheet.
- Layer 1/2 of the cheese over the bottom of the rolls.
- Add the ham on top of the cheese.
- Place the pickles on top of the top.
- Arrange the rest of the cheese over the pickles. Place the tops of the rolls over the cheese.
- In a small bowl, mix together the butter and garlic powder. Brush the butter mixture over the tops of the rolls.
- Cover the sandwiches with foil and bake for 10 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until sandwiches are golden brown and cheese is melted.
- Sprinkle with parsley, and serve with mustard on the side.
Notes
- Slider-style dinner rolls like potato or Hawaiian rolls suit this recipe well and offer soft texture.
- Use high-quality deli ham, such as smoked or honey ham, for better flavor.
- For optimal texture and flavor, serve the sliders hot immediately after baking to enjoy melted cheese and crisp tops.
