Let’s Get Cooking! 👩🍳
Ingredients You'll Need:
For the Russian Dressing:
- 1/2 tablespoon finely chopped onion (for that little kick)
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise (the creamy base)
- 2 tablespoons ketchup (for a touch of sweetness)
- 2 teaspoons prepared horseradish (the zesty hero)
- 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce (a dash of fire)
- 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (umami magic)
- 1/8 teaspoon sweet paprika (color and subtle sweetness)
- Salt to taste (a pinch of perfection)
For the Sliders:
- 12 pretzel slider rolls (the perfect vessel)
- 12 slices deli corned beef (the star of the show)
- 6 slices Swiss cheese, cut into 24 squares (melty goodness)
- 1/4 lb sauerkraut (that tangy must-have)
Instructions:
- Whip Up the Dressing: In a small bowl, mix all the Russian dressing ingredients until well combined. Set aside while you prepare the sliders.
- Warm the Buns: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C), then turn it off. Place the slider buns on a baking sheet in the warm oven for a few minutes to soften them.
- Assemble & Broil: Remove the buns from the oven, turn on the broiler, and split the rolls. Layer the bottom halves with corned beef, sauerkraut, and two cheese squares per bun. Place the sliders under the broiler until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Dress & Serve: Spread the Russian dressing generously on the inside of the top buns, then place them on top of the sliders. Serve immediately and enjoy!
