Ingredients
  

12 soft slider buns

1 lb ground turkey

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking dish with parchment paper to make cleanup a breeze.

    Prepare the Turkey Mixture: In a spacious mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey with the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses. Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and season with salt and pepper. Mix gently until everything is just combined—be careful not to overmix to ensure the turkey patties remain tender.

      Form the Sliders: Divide the turkey mixture into 12 equal portions. Shape each portion into a small patty that will fit snugly in your slider buns.

        Cook the Sliders: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place the turkey patties in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C). Once cooked, transfer the patties to a plate and allow them to cool slightly.

          Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, and a pinch of salt and pepper until the mixture is smooth and creamy—this will be the delicious sauce for your sliders.

            Assemble the Sliders: Carefully slice the slider buns in half horizontally. On the bottom half of each bun, spread a generous layer of the prepared sauce. Place one turkey patty on top, followed by the top half of the bun. Continue this process until all sliders are assembled.

              Bake the Sliders: Arrange the assembled sliders in your prepared baking dish. Cover them with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes. For a crispier, golden top, remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes.

                Garnish and Serve: Remove the sliders from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color. Serve warm with extra sauce on the side for dipping. Enjoy your delightful sliders!
