Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of softened butter on one side of each slice of rye bread.
Lay 4 slices of bread, butter-side-down, on a clean surface or cutting board.
Spread 1-2 tablespoons of Thousand Island dressing on the unbuttered side of each of these 4 slices.
Layer 1/4 pound sliced turkey breast onto each slice of bread, followed by 2 tablespoons of sauerkraut and 2 slices of Swiss cheese.
Top each sandwich with the remaining slices of bread, butter-side-up.
Place the sandwiches on the preheated skillet or griddle. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and crispy and the cheese is melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them rest for 1-2 minutes. Slice each sandwich in half and serve warm.
