MINI MEATBALL SLIDERS FOR A PARTY



Mini Meatball Sliders for a Party image

Provided by Trisha Yearwood

Time 1h5m

Yield 24 mini meatball sliders

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 pound ground beef
1/2 pound ground pork
1 large egg
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons store-bought pesto
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons olive oil
24 mini party potato buns (buns are attached to each other)
1 cup marinara sauce
1/4 cup torn fresh basil
8 thick slices sharp provolone
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon garlic salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place the beef and pork in a mixing bowl. Add the egg, breadcrumbs, pesto, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper and half the Parmesan. Gently mix together to incorporate. Scoop out 24 heaping tablespoons meatball mix (each just shy of 1 1/2 tablespoons). Roll the mounds into round meatballs between your palms.
  • Place a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in the olive oil and heat until shimmering. Carefully add the meatballs to the skillet and fry until crispy and brown, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Remove the meatballs from the skillet and discard any remaining oil.
  • Halve the potato buns horizontally without separating the buns from each other. Put the bottom buns on the prepared baking sheet and spread 1/2 cup marinara sauce on top. Line up the meatballs on top of the sauce, so that each bun will have its own meatball. Pour the remaining marinara sauce over the meatballs. Sprinkle with the basil. Lay the sliced provolone evenly over the meatballs. Place the top buns over the cheese.
  • Mix the melted butter and the garlic salt together. Generously brush over the top buns. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan evenly over the butter mixture.
  • Bake until the provolone melts and the topping turns golden brown, about 15 minutes. Slice into individual sliders and serve immediately.

Categories     Buffet

Time 45m

Yield Serves 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tbsp olive oil
12 beef meatballs
12 small bread rolls (check the bakery section of the supermarket for a batch of rolls that are baked together, so they're still attached to one another)
100g tomato pasta sauce
100g grated mozzarella
50g butter, melted
1 tsp dried oregano
20g grated parmesan

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.

MEATLESS MEATBALL SLIDERS



Meatless Meatball Sliders image

I'm not typically a 'meatless meat' person, but this blend sold me on the concept. It uses simple ingredients I always have on hand. It also has a good dose of protein, just like meat!

Provided by Molly Yeh

Categories     appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 6 meatless meatball sliders

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup almonds or walnuts, toasted
2 cloves garlic
1 cup panko or matzo meal
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese, plus more for topping
2 tablespoons dried parsley
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 large eggs
3 1/2 cups (28 ounces) tomato sauce
Canola or vegetable oil, for frying
12 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced 1/4 inch thick
Fresh basil leaves, for topping
6 slider rolls, toasted
Chopped fresh parsley or basil, for topping

Steps:

  • Combine the nuts and garlic in a food processor and pulse to a coarse crumb. Add the panko, Parmesan, parsley, a big pinch of salt and a few turns of pepper and pulse to combine. Add the eggs and process until the mixture holds together in a ball. Roll the mixture into 1 1/2 tablespoon-size balls, packing just firmly enough so they hold together but not so much that they toughen. Put the balls on a plate or sheet of parchment paper.
  • Warm the tomato sauce in a large pot over medium heat.
  • Heat 1/4 inch of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the balls in batches, turning, until they're golden brown on all sides, 7 to 10 minutes. (Alternatively, you can deep-fry the suckers if that's what you're into.) Add to the tomato sauce.
  • Put 1 slice of mozzarella, 2 balls and 1 or 2 basil leaves on each roll. Serve with additional sauce and chopped parsley or basil on the side.
