Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices Rye bread
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 8 slices Corned beef
- 8 slices Swiss cheese
- 1 cup Sauerkraut
- 0.5 cup Thousand Island dressing
- 1 as needed Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup, and lightly coat it with cooking spray.
Spread a thin, even layer of butter on one side of each slice of rye bread.
Place 4 slices of bread, butter side down, onto the prepared baking sheet.
On each slice of bread, layer 1 piece of Swiss cheese, 2 slices of corned beef, 1/4 cup of sauerkraut (drained well to avoid sogginess), and 2 tablespoons of Thousand Island dressing.
Top each sandwich with another slice of rye bread, butter side up.
Place another sheet of aluminum foil loosely over the sandwiches, then press down gently. Set a second baking sheet on top to apply weight evenly during baking.
Bake the sandwiches in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Carefully remove the top baking sheet and foil, then return the sandwiches to the oven to bake uncovered for an additional 5 minutes, or until the tops are golden and crisp.
Remove from the oven and let the sandwiches cool slightly. Slice in half and serve warm.
