How to make it
Make this baked Italian sliders recipe by cutting your Hawaiian rolls in half and placing the bottoms in a small baking dish. Pile the salami and pepperoni on each slider, then top with cheese and pepperonincinis. Cover the sliders with the top buns.
Mix together the melted butter, minced garlic, and grated Parmesan in a small bowl, then spread evenly over the top of the sliders. Cover the sliders in aluminum foil, then bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Remove the foil, then bake 10 additional minutes.
Storing and Reheating Leftovers
Leftover Italian sliders should be kept refrigerated in an airtight container for up to one week. They can be reheated in a baking dish covered in aluminum foil, then baked at 350 degrees for 20 minutes, or until warmed.
