Ingredients

For the garlic aioli

1 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons garlic minced
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
½ tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

For the salmon

2 pounds salmon cut square to fit your slider buns
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 lemon thinly sliced
½ cup butter cut into slices
2 sprigs rosemary

To assemble

4 slider buns
1 cup arugula
4 thin slices of tomato
8 slices crisp bacon

Instructions

Prep. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking tray with a sheet with parchment paper.
Make the aioli. mix together the mayo, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, salt, pepper, Dijon, and parsley until smooth. Cover and chill in the refrigerator while you make the salmon.
Bake the salmon. Arrange the salmon pieces on the prepared baking sheet. Season the salmon with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Scatter the lemon slices, butter, and finely chop rosemary over the salmon. Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven.
Assemble the sliders. Remove the top halves of the slider buns, spread a bit of garlic aioli over them, and layer the ingredients into the buns in the following order: arugula, tomato, salmon, bacon. Slather the top halves of the buns with aioli and place them, aioli-side-down on top of the sliders to close them. Skewer the slider with a sandwich pick to hold them together.

Notes

These mini salmon sandwiches do not reheat well. So if you do end up storing them in the fridge for a bit, I suggest enjoying the leftovers cold.
You will not use all of the aioli on these sandwiches so enjoy it for the rest of the week on these crab cake sandwiches or on these bratwursts in the oven.
