Ingredients
Caramelized Onions
- ¼ cup (½ stick or 57g) butter
- 2 large onions, thinly sliced
- ½ teaspoon sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Roast Beef Rolls
- all-purpose flour, for work surface
- 2 cans (8 ounces each) crescent dough
- 10 slices provolone cheese
- 1 pound deli roast beef, shaved or thinly sliced
Salted Butter Topping
- ¼ cup (½ stick or 57g) butter
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon minced parsley
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Set aside.
Caramelized Onions
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter.
- Add onions and sugar and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions begin to soften and brown (about 5 minutes).
- Add salt and pepper and reduce heat to medium.
- Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft and caramelized (10 to 15 more minutes).
- Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
Roast Beef Rolls
- Remove the crescent rolls from the cans. On a lightly floured surface, unroll the crescent dough and combine into one large rectangle. Pinch together the seams.
- Top with provolone cheese, roast beef, and caramelized onions.
- Roll up tightly starting on the long edge.
- Using a very sharp knife, cut the log into 12 rolls. Place them into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake for 43-45 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown.
Salted Butter Topping
- When the roast beef rolls are almost done baking, prepare the salted butter topping. In a small, microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Stir in the salt and parsley.
- Brush the salted butter over the warm rolls. Serve.
