Substitution
Arby's Sliders - Roast Turkey replicate the classic sandwich with tender oven-roasted turkey breast, Swiss cheese, and savory mayonnaise on mini buns. If oven-roasted turkey breast is unavailable, you can substitute it with roasted chicken breast or deli turkey slices for a similar flavor. Swiss cheese can be replaced with provolone or mozzarella if you prefer a milder or different texture. Homemade mayonnaise can be prepared using a whisk or blender if you want to control ingredients, or you can use store-bought mayo for convenience. Use parchment paper on your baking tray to prevent sticking and simplify cleanup, especially when warming the mini buns or melting the cheese.
Tips
Ensure your oven is fully preheated to 350degF (175degC) before warming the sliders, which helps melt the Swiss cheese evenly without overcooking the turkey. Use a sharp slicing knife to cut the turkey breast thinly, allowing for uniform layering and easier biting consistency. When applying mayonnaise, spread it evenly on the bun tops to prevent the sandwiches from becoming soggy while maintaining flavor balance. Arrange sliders on a parchment-lined baking tray for easy cleanup and to avoid sticking during the warming process.
Nutritions
Arby's Roast Turkey Sliders provide approximately 200 calories per slider, making them a moderate-calorie snack or light meal option. Each slider contains about 12 grams of protein from the turkey breast, supporting muscle maintenance and repair. The inclusion of Swiss cheese adds roughly 6 grams of fat and 8 grams of calcium per slider, contributing to bone health. Your intake of saturated fat and sodium should be monitored, as mayonnaise and cheese contribute to these nutrients, affecting heart health if consumed excessively.
Storage
Store your Arby's Roast Turkey Sliders in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness for up to 2 days. To prevent the buns from becoming soggy, keep the mayonnaise-coated bun tops separate from the turkey and cheese layer until ready to serve. Reheat the sliders in an oven preheated to 350degF (175degC) for 5-7 minutes to melt the cheese and warm the meat evenly.
Variation or Alternatives
For a variation, you can replace Swiss cheese with provolone or cheddar for a different flavor profile. Consider using cranberry sauce in place of mayonnaise to add a sweet and tangy contrast that complements the turkey. Instead of warming sliders in the oven, you may grill them briefly to add a smoky taste and crisp texture to the buns. You can also elevate the dish by adding fresh greens like arugula or spinach for extra crunch and nutrition.
Allergies
Arby's Roast Turkey Sliders contain common allergens such as dairy from Swiss cheese and eggs in mayonnaise, which may trigger reactions in people with lactose intolerance or egg allergies. Wheat in the mini sandwich buns can cause issues for those with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease. You should carefully check ingredient labels and consult with a healthcare professional if you have any food allergies.
