Ingredients
  

For the Sliders
  • 12 rolls Hawaiian rolls Perfectly sweet and soft, these serve as the ideal base.
  • 6 oz ham thinly sliced; turkey is a lighter alternative.
  • 5 oz salami thinly sliced; prosciutto can work beautifully too.
  • 5 oz pepperoni thinly sliced; feel free to omit if you prefer a milder taste.
  • 9 slices provolone cheese Melts beautifully for that gooey texture; mozzarella can be swapped in.
  • ⅓ cup pepperoncini sliced; mild banana peppers can substitute for less heat.
  • ⅓ cup pickled hot cherry peppers sliced; roasted red peppers are a milder option.
  • ¼ cup salted butter melted; olive oil makes a lighter alternative.
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning Elevates the overall flavor; use dried herbs like oregano or basil.
  • 2 cloves garlic crushed; fresh garlic is preferred over jarred versions.
  • 1 cup marinara sauce for serving, optional; consider ranch or other dips for variety.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a lined baking sheet.
  2. Assemble the bottom layer by placing the bottom half of the rolls on the baking sheet, followed by ham, salami, pepperoni, and provolone cheese, topped with peppers.
  3. Add the top buns carefully, aligning them with the bottom rolls and press down lightly.
  4. Mix melted butter with Italian seasoning and garlic, then brush generously over the top of the sliders.
  5. Cover with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Remove the foil, check that the cheese is melted, cool slightly, and slice into individual servings.
