Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Assemble the sliders – Slice the Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally (keeping them connected if possible). Place the bottom half in the baking dish.
Layer the ingredients – Spread Thousand Island dressing on the bottom half of the rolls. Add a layer of corned beef, followed by Swiss cheese, then sauerkraut. Place the top half of the rolls over the fillings.
Prepare the buttery topping – In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and caraway seeds (if using).
Brush and bake – Brush the buttery topping evenly over the tops of the sliders. Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 5-7 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Garnish and serve – Sprinkle with chopped parsley, if desired. Slice and serve warm!

Notes

Make ahead: Assemble the sliders ahead of time, cover, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 300°F for 10 minutes for best results.
Variations: Swap corned beef for pastrami or use Russian dressing instead of Thousand Island for a twist!
