Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Rye bread
- 8 ounces Cooked turkey breast
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 1 cup Sauerkraut
- 4 tablespoons Thousand Island dressing
- 2 tablespoons Butter
Instructions
Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter evenly on one side of each slice of rye bread.
Place two slices of bread, buttered side down, on the preheated skillet.
Layer each slice with 2 ounces of turkey breast, 2 tablespoons of sauerkraut (drained if needed), 1 slice of Swiss cheese, and 2 tablespoons of Thousand Island dressing.
Top each sandwich with the remaining slices of bread, buttered side up.
Cook the sandwiches for 3-4 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula, until golden brown and the cheese begins to melt.
Carefully flip the sandwiches and cook for another 3-4 minutes, until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let rest for 1-2 minutes before slicing in half and serving warm.
