TIPS FOR MAKING ITALIAN SLIDERS:
- Use fresh garlic. It really makes a huge difference in the flavor. We aren't using a ton of spices so fresh garlic is key.
- Giardiniera is an olive mixture usually added to muffuletta sandwiches. Generally, you can find it in the same aisle where the pickles are located. Not a fan of olives? Just leave it out or substitute with sliced, pickled banana peppers.
- You can use any type of slider rolls for these. I just like the soft, lighter flavor of Hawaiian rolls.
- Don't forget the marinara dipping sauce. It's a must!
INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (FULL RECIPE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST)
- Hawaiian sweet rolls
- deli sliced pepperoni
- sliced salami
- sliced provolone (or mozzarella) cheese
- salted butter
- fresh garlic
- oregano (or Italian seasoning)
- giardiniera
- marinara sauce, for serving
HOW TO MAKE GARLIC BREAD ITALIAN SLIDERS:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Leaving them attached, slice the Hawaiian sweet rolls in half and then set the top half aside. Place the bottom half in a glass baking dish. In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter and minced garlic.
Using a spoon or basting brush, spread half of the butter mixture over the bottom half of the buns. Layer the cheese over the bottom buns, followed by the salami, pepperoni, and giardiniera. Sliced banana peppers can also be used in place of giardiniera.
Place the top buns back on top. Using a spoon or basthing brush, spread the remainder of the butter mixture over the top of the sliders and then sprinkle oregano over the top.
Bake for 7-8 minutes, or until the top of the buns turn a golden brown. Cut them apart and serve with marinara sauce.
