Cook Notes and Variations:
- Cooking Time: The cooking time may vary depending on your oven and the thickness of the beef slices. Keep an eye on the sliders to prevent them from overcooking.
- Customize: Feel free to customize these sliders with your favorite ingredients. Add mushrooms, different types of cheese, or your preferred seasonings to make them your own.
- Make Ahead: You can assemble the sliders ahead of time and refrigerate them until you’re ready to bake. This makes them perfect for parties or busy weeknights.
- Grilled Version: For a delicious twist, grill the assembled sliders on a grill pan or outdoor grill instead of baking them in the oven. This will add a smoky flavor and crispy texture to the sliders.
