Reuben Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all ingredients and ensure the sauerkraut is well-drained.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread 1 tablespoon of Russian dressing on one side of each slice of rye bread. On two slices, layer corned beef, sauerkraut, and Swiss cheese. Top with the remaining slices of bread, dressing side down.

  3. 3

    Cook the Sandwich

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, cut in half, and serve hot with extra Russian dressing on the side if desired.
