Ingredients:
- 1 pound beef sirloin, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 medium green bell pepper, julienned
- 1 medium red bell pepper, cut into thin matchsticks
- 4 ounces mushrooms, thinly sliced (optional)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to your liking
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1 cup provolone cheese, shredded
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 12 slider rolls (or 1 package of Hawaiian rolls)
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon freshly chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
- Cook the Beef: In a large skillet, warm 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced beef sirloin and cook, turning occasionally, until it’s browned all over, about 4-5 minutes. Season the beef with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Once seasoned, take the beef out of the skillet and set it aside.
- Cook the Vegetables: Using the same skillet, pour in the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Incorporate the sliced onion, green and red bell peppers, and mushrooms (if desired). Sauté the vegetables until they are soft and slightly caramelized, about 7-8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat.
- Assemble the Sliders: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Slice the slider rolls in half horizontally, keeping the tops and bottoms intact as a unit if using Hawaiian rolls. Place the bottom halves of the rolls in a 9×13-inch baking dish. Layer the cooked beef evenly over the bottom half of the rolls, followed by the sautéed vegetables. Sprinkle the shredded provolone and cheddar cheeses evenly over the top.
- Bake the Sliders: Place the top halves of the slider rolls over the cheese. Brush the melted butter over the tops of the rolls. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 10 minutes. Take off the foil and continue baking for another 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the tops of the rolls are a golden brown.
- Finish and Serve: Allow the sliders to cool for a few minutes after removing them from the oven. For an extra touch of flavor and color, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley. Slice the sliders with a sharp knife and serve them warm.
