Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    If using seitan, slice it into thin strips. If using turkey, ensure it is cooked and sliced.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Dressing

    In a small bowl, mix together the Russian dressing ingredients if making from scratch.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On one slice of rye bread, layer the seitan or turkey, followed by the sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and a drizzle of Russian dressing. Top with the second slice of rye bread.

  2. 4

    Grill the Sandwich

    Heat a skillet over medium heat and add butter if desired. Place the sandwich in the skillet and grill until golden brown on one side, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and grill the other side until the cheese is melted and the bread is crispy, another 3-4 minutes.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve

    Remove the sandwich from the skillet, slice in half, and serve hot with additional Russian dressing on the side if desired.
