how to make Roast Beef Sliders

Ingredients:

• 2 cups beef broth (preferably low sodium)
• 1 pound deli sliced roast beef
• 12 Hawaiian rolls, sliced in half lengthwise
• 12 slices provolone cheese
• 1/2 cup salted butter, melted
• 1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon dried onion flakes
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9 by 13 inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
2. Pour the beef broth into a large skillet and bring it to a simmer for about five minutes.
3. Add the sliced roast beef to the skillet and stir until heated through, about two minutes.
4. Place the bottom halves of the Hawaiian rolls, cut side up, in the baking dish. Lay six slices of provolone cheese over the rolls, slightly overlapping if needed.
5. Add the warm roast beef on top, letting any excess broth drip off first. Layer the remaining six slices of provolone cheese over the beef.
6. Place the top halves of the rolls over the cheese.
7. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, Dijon mustard, dried onion flakes, and garlic powder. Stir well.
8. Brush the butter mixture generously over the tops of the rolls.
9. Cover the dish with foil that has been sprayed with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Bake for 20 minutes until the cheese is melted.
10. Remove the foil and bake for about five more minutes until the tops are golden brown.
11. Cut into individual sliders and serve warm.
