Pull Apart Meatball Sliders Recipes

GARLIC BREAD MEATBALL SLIDERS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350° F (180°C).
• In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, egg, salt, pepper, garlic powder, parmesan, and chopped basil until thoroughly mixed.
• Take a golf ball-sized amount of the beef mixture and roll it into a ball. Repeat with the rest of the beef mixture, setting the meatballs aside on a plate.
• Heat oil in a pan over high heat. Sear meatballs on one side for about one to two minutes, then flip. Cook for another one to two minutes, then remove the meatballs from the pan and drain any excess fat.
• Pour the marinara sauce into the pan and place the meatballs in the sauce. Cook for about eight to 10 minutes, flipping the meatballs in the sauce until the sauce has reduced to a thick consistency. Remove from heat.
• Cut the 4×3 sheet of dinner rolls in half lengthwise. Arrange the bottom half into a 9×13 inch (23x33 cm) baking pan.
• Place the meatballs evenly in a 4×3 grid, putting one on each roll. Layer the mozzarella evenly on top. Cover with the top half of the dinner rolls.
• In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, garlic, basil, and parmesan, stirring until evenly mixed. Pour the garlic butter mixture over the top of the sliders.
• Bake for 20 minutes until the rolls are golden brown and cheese is melted.
• Cut into individual sandwiches, and serve.
• Enjoy!

PULL-APART MEATBALL SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Mix the beef, parsley, breadcrumbs, milk, garlic, egg, 1/2 cup Parmesan and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper together in a large bowl. Form into twelve 2-inch meatballs.
• Combine the marinara with 1/2 cup water in a large saucepot and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Gently add the meatballs to the sauce and simmer until cooked through, about 20 minutes.
• Preheat the broiler. Split the whole pack of attached dinner rolls in half horizontally. Put the top and bottom halves cut-side up on a baking sheet. Brush with all but 1 tablespoon of the melted butter and broil until toasted, 1 to 3 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spread half the mozzarella on the bottom half of the bread. Top with the meatballs, then 1 cup of the marinara sauce. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup Parmesan and top with the remaining mozzarella. Cover with the top bread piece, then brush the roll tops with the remaining tablespoon melted butter. Sprinkle with the remaining tablespoon Parmesan and the Italian seasoning.
• Bake until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted, 12 to 15 minutes. Serve.

MEATBALL-STUFFED GARLIC BREAD SLIDERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and 2 cloves garlic; cook and stir until onion is soft, about 5 minutes.
• Place beef in a large bowl. Add onion-garlic mixture, parsley, egg, bread crumbs, and 1 large handful of fontina cheese, reserving the rest for topping. Season with salt, pepper, and cayenne. Mix by hand until just combined. Scoop meat mixture into 24 mini muffin cups; meatballs need not be perfectly round.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the centers, about 12 minutes. Leave oven on. Let meatballs cool briefly while you make the garlic butter.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add remaining minced garlic once butter starts to bubble; stir, then immediately remove from heat. Stir well and set aside.
• Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil; coat foil with remaining olive oil. Transfer rolls, still attached, to the baking sheet. Cut a hole in the top of each roll, about 2/3 of the way down. Brush garlic butter over the insides and outsides of the rolls.
• Bake until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Pour about 1 tablespoon tomato sauce into each hole. Stuff meatballs into the holes. Top each roll with a spoonful of tomato sauce and remaining fontina cheese. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top.
• Continue baking until cheese is melted, 12 to 15 minutes. Garnish with more parsley. Let rolls sit for 5 to 10 minutes to firm up; transfer to a serving platter.

PULL-APART MEATBALL SLIDERS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pan, and fry the meatballs for about 8-10 mins, or until browned and cooked through. Set aside. Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
• Carefully split the whole batch of rolls through the middle, ensuring they remain attached at their sides. Lay the bottoms of the rolls in a roasting tin lined with a sheet of scrunched-up baking parchment or foil. Spread the tomato sauce over, then place one meatball on every roll. Sprinkle over the mozzarella, then cover with the tops of the rolls, pressing down gently.
• Brush with the melted butter, then sprinkle over the oregano and parmesan. Cover with foil and bake for 20 mins, uncovering for the final 5 mins so the tops become golden.
