1
Prepare the Ingredients
Gather all ingredients and ensure that the corned beef is thinly sliced, the sauerkraut is drained, and the Gruyère cheese is grated.
2
Assemble the Sandwich
On two slices of rye bread, spread 2 tablespoons of Russian dressing on each slice. Layer the corned beef, sauerkraut, and Gruyère cheese evenly on one slice.
3
Top and Butter
Place the other slice of rye bread on top to form a sandwich. Spread 1 tablespoon of softened butter on the top slice.
4
Cook the Sandwich
In a skillet over medium heat, place the sandwich butter-side down. Cook for about 4-5 minutes until golden brown. While cooking, butter the top slice.
5
Flip and Finish
Carefully flip the sandwich and cook the other side for an additional 4-5 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the bread is crispy.
6
Serve
Remove from heat, slice in half, and serve hot with extra Russian dressing on the side if desired.
