French Dip Sliders are King’s Hawaiian Rolls layered with tender, slow-cooked roast beef, caramelized onions, and melted provolone cheese, brushed and baked with a garlic butter topping. Then, the sliders are served with au jus for dipping, bringing even more flavor to each bite! These can be enjoyed as the main dish or as a delicious appetizer.

Ingredients

• 1 large yellow onion, halved, sliced
• 1 package (12-count) King’s Hawaiian Rolls

5. Place the bottom halves of the rolls into the prepared baking dish.
6. Top with 4 slices of provolone cheese, roast beef, caramelized onions, and remaining slices of cheese.
7. Top with the top halves of the rolls.
8. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, garlic, parsley, and salt.

11. Remove foil, and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes to toast the tops of the sliders.
