Creating delicious Cowboy Butter Steak Sliders can be straightforward when following these steps:
1. Prepare the Cowboy Butter: In a mixing bowl, combine softened butter, garlic, parsley, chives, dill, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix until well blended; set aside to let the flavors meld.
2. Prepare the Steak: Season the steak generously with salt and pepper. Drizzle olive oil on both sides.
3. Grill the Steak: Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the steak for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until cooked to your desired doneness. Let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes after grilling.
4. Slice the Steak: Once the steak has rested, slice it against the grain into thin strips to ensure tenderness.
5. Toast the Buns: Lightly toast the slider buns on the grill or in a toaster.
6. Assemble the Sliders: Spread a generous amount of cowboy butter on the bottom half of each slider bun. Layer with sliced steak, and if desired, add cheese, lettuce, tomato, and any additional toppings before placing the top half of the bun.
7. Serve: Arrange the assembled sliders on a platter and serve warm, allowing guests to help themselves.
These steps will guide you in creating these incredible sliders effortlessly. The beauty of Cowboy Butter Steak Sliders lies in their simplicity combined with layers of flavor.
