Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Remove from heat once fully melted.
- Whisk in the honey Dijon mustard, chopped chives, parsley, thyme leaves, minced garlic, kosher salt, black pepper, paprika, and chipotle powder until well combined. The mixture might look slightly curdled, which is normal.
- Carefully slice the King Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally, keeping the rolls connected. Place the bottom half of the rolls into the prepared baking dish.
- In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef with chopped onion and minced garlic, stirring and breaking up the beef until it's fully cooked and no longer pink. Drain off any excess grease.
- Stir the hamburger seasoning and Worcestershire sauce into the cooked beef mixture.
- Using a pastry brush, coat the bottom half of the rolls generously with the cowboy butter mixture.
- Spoon the seasoned ground beef mixture evenly over the buttered bottom layer of rolls.
- Evenly sprinkle the shredded sharp cheddar cheese over the ground beef layer.
- Sprinkle the crumbled, crispy bacon over the cheese layer.
- Evenly sprinkle the french fried onions over the bacon.
- Place one jalapeno ring on top of the french fried onions for each slider.
- Place the top half of the Hawaiian rolls over the filling.
- Brush the tops of the buns with the remaining cowboy butter mixture.
- Cover the baking dish tightly with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Bake for 15 minutes. Then, remove the foil and continue baking for another 10 minutes, or until the tops of the rolls are golden brown. Keep an eye on them in the last few minutes to prevent burning.
- Let the sliders rest in the pan for 5 minutes before carefully slicing each individual slider. Serve warm.
Notes
These sliders are best served immediately after baking. You can adjust the amount of jalapeño to your spice preference.
