Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Rye bread
- 8 slices Corned beef
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 1 cup Sauerkraut
- 4 tablespoons Thousand Island dressing
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine softened butter, garlic powder, and ground black pepper. Mix well to create garlic butter.
Spread a thin, even layer of garlic butter onto one side of each slice of rye bread.
Heat a skillet or pan over medium heat.
Place two slices of bread, buttered side down, into the skillet.
Spread 1 tablespoon of Thousand Island dressing on the upward-facing side of each bread slice in the skillet.
Layer 4 slices of corned beef onto one side of each bread slice positioned in the skillet.
Spoon 1/2 cup of sauerkraut evenly over the corned beef on each sandwich in the skillet.
Top the sauerkraut with 2 slices of Swiss cheese per sandwich.
Spread another tablespoon of Thousand Island dressing onto the non-buttered side of the remaining two slices of bread, and place them on top of the sandwiches, buttered side up.
Cook the sandwich for about 4-5 minutes on the first side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and crispy.
Carefully flip the sandwich and continue cooking for another 4-5 minutes until the second side is golden and the cheese is melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them rest for 1-2 minutes before slicing them in half and serving. Enjoy!
