Method
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F and spray 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in large skillet over medium-high heat, add ground beef breaking it into crumbles, and cook for 6-8 minutes until deeply browned with crispy edges. Transfer cooked beef to plate, leaving drippings in pan.Step 2: Add remaining tablespoon of olive oil to same skillet, then add sliced onions and diced bell peppers. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened and beginning to caramelize with golden-brown spots. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute until fragrant.Step 3: Return cooked beef to skillet with vegetables, add Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper, and stir everything together for 1-2 minutes to combine flavors. Remove from heat and let mixture cool slightly while you prepare the rolls.Step 4: Without separating the Hawaiian rolls, use a long serrated knife to slice the entire pack in half horizontally, creating one large bottom piece and one large top piece. Place bottom half of rolls in prepared baking dish, cut-side up, keeping them connected as one unit.Step 5: Spread beef and vegetable mixture evenly over bottom layer of rolls, making sure filling reaches all corners and edges. Layer provolone cheese slices over the beef mixture, overlapping slightly to cover completely. Place top half of rolls over cheese layer, creating one large assembled unit.Step 6: In small bowl, mix melted butter with garlic powder. Brush butter mixture generously over top of rolls, making sure to coat the entire surface. Sprinkle dried parsley (or reserve fresh parsley for after baking) over buttered tops.Step 7: Cover baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove foil and bake uncovered for 5-7 more minutes until tops are golden brown and cheese is fully melted and bubbling. Let sliders rest for 3-4 minutes, then slice along perforated lines to separate into individual sliders. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately while hot.
