Santa Fe Turkey Sliders
Santa Fe Turkey Sliders combine deli-sliced turkey, shredded pepper jack cheese, and diced green chiles layered inside soft Hawaiian rolls spread with a spicy mayo. The assembled sliders are topped with a butter sauce seasoned with poppy seeds, Dijon mustard, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce before baking. This results in a savory, mildly spicy slider featuring a tender, cheesy interior with a rich, buttery crust, ideal for gatherings or casual meals.

Ingredients
Spicy Mayo
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon yellow curry powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Sandwiches
- 12 count package hawaiian rolls
- 1 pound turkey deli sliced
- 8 ounces pepper jack cheese shredded
- 1 (7 ounce can) diced green chiles drained
Butter Sauce
- 1/2 cup butter melted
- 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 9x13 or 8x11-inch baking pan.
- In a small bowl, stir together 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon yellow curry powder, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt until well combined. Set aside.
- Remove 12 count package Hawaiian rolls from the packaging and keep them in a slab. Slice them in half lengthwise to create two separate slabs, a top and bottom. Place the bottom slab into the prepared baking pan.
- Assemble your sliders by spreading the mayo mixture on the bottom slab to cover. Top with an even layer of half of your shredded pepper jack cheese. Layer 1 pound deli sliced turkey on top of the cheese and then spoon 1 (7 ounce can) diced green chiles on top of the turkey to cover. Sprinkle the remaining pepper jack cheese on top to cover. Place the top slab of Hawaiian rolls on top to complete the sandwich.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup melted butter, 1 tablespoon poppy seeds, 1 tablespoon dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon onion powder, and 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce until well combined.
- Drizzle or brush the butter mixture over the top of the sandwiches to cover.
- Loosely cover the pan with aluminum foil. Bake at 350℉ for 10 minutes, or until cheese is completely melted. Serve hot.
