Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Rye bread
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 8 slices Deli corned beef
- 1 cup Sauerkraut
- 4 tablespoons Russian dressing
- 2 tablespoons Butter
Instructions
Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter on one side of each slice of rye bread.
Place two slices of bread, buttered side down, onto the skillet.
Spread 1 tablespoon of Russian dressing on the top, unbuttered side of each slice of bread in the skillet.
Layer 2 slices of Swiss cheese on each piece of bread, followed by 4 slices of corned beef and 1/2 cup of sauerkraut.
Spread 1 tablespoon of Russian dressing on the unbuttered side of the remaining two slices of bread, then place these slices on top of the sandwiches, buttered side up.
Cook the sandwiches for about 4-5 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and crispy.
Carefully flip the sandwiches and cook for another 4-5 minutes, until the second side is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them rest for 1 minute to cool slightly.
Slice each sandwich in half and serve immediately.
