BURGER SLIDERS WITH SECRET SAUCE



Burger Sliders with Secret Sauce image

These sliders are super easy to put together and are always a hit! I love that they are "fast food" without having to go to a restaurant. Take them to a party, make them for dinner or serve them on game day. The meat can also be made ahead of time in preparation for your gathering. -April Lee Wiencek, Chicago, Illinois

Time 30m

Yield 12 sliders

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 pounds ground beef
2 large eggs, beaten
3/4 cup minced onion, divided
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 package (17 ounces) dinner rolls
1/2 cup Thousand Island salad dressing, divided
10 slices American cheese
12 sliced dill pickles
1-1/2 cups shredded Iceberg lettuce
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, mix beef, eggs, 1/2 cup minced onion, garlic powder, salt and pepper just until combined; do not overmix. Place meat mixture on a large, parchment-lined baking sheet; shape into two, 6-in. x 8-in. rectangles, each about 1/2-inch thick. Bake until a thermometer reads 160°, 15-20 minutes., Meanwhile, without separating rolls, cut rolls in half horizontally. Spread 1/4 cup of dressing evenly over bottom halves of rolls., Blot meat with paper towels to remove excess fat; top meat with cheese and return to oven. Bake until cheese has just melted, 2-3 minutes. Place meat on bottom halves of rolls; spread with remaining 1/4 cup dressing. Layer with pickles, remaining 1/4 cup minced onion and shredded lettuce; replace with top halves of rolls. Brush butter on top of rolls; sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use ripe pineapples. Fresh pineapple chunks add a delicious sweetness and tanginess to the chicken. For the best flavor, use ripe pineapples that are yellow and fragrant.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking dish. Make sure there is enough space between the chicken pieces so that they can cook evenly. If the chicken is too crowded, it will steam instead of bake and will not be as crispy.
  • Baste the chicken with the marinade. This will help keep the chicken moist and flavorful. Baste the chicken every 15-20 minutes during baking.
  • Cook the chicken until it is cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit before it is safe to eat. Check the chicken with a meat thermometer to make sure it is cooked through before removing it from the oven.

Conclusion:

Baked Aloha Chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make Hawaiian dish. It is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the pineapple and teriyaki sauce add a delicious sweetness and tanginess. Serve Baked Aloha Chicken with rice, vegetables, or your favorite side dishes. Enjoy!
