Turkey Reuben Sandwiches

Ingredients

  • 8 slices of rye bread
  • 8 ounces of sliced turkey breast
  • 4 ounces of Swiss cheese, sliced
  • 1 cup of sauerkraut, drained
  • 4 tablespoons of Russian or Thousand Island dressing
  • 4 tablespoons of butter

Instructions

  1. Begin by preheating your skillet over medium heat.
  2. Spread a tablespoon of butter on one side of each slice of rye bread. This will give the sandwiches a nice golden-brown crust when grilled.
  3. On the unbuttered side of four slices, spread a tablespoon of dressing. Layer the turkey slices evenly over the dressing.
  4. Next, add a layer of sauerkraut on top of the turkey, followed by a slice of Swiss cheese.
  5. Place the remaining slices of bread on top, buttered side up, to form a sandwich.
  6. Carefully place the sandwiches in the preheated skillet. Cook until the bread is golden brown and toasty, approximately 4-5 minutes.
  7. Flip the sandwiches using a spatula, and cook the other side for an additional 4-5 minutes, making sure the cheese melts properly.
  8. Once both sides are golden and the cheese is melted, remove the sandwiches from the skillet.
  9. Let them rest for a minute before slicing them in half. Serve warm with extra dressing on the side for dipping if desired.

These Turkey Reuben Sandwiches are not only quick to prepare but are also packed with flavor. Ideal for busy weekdays or a leisurely weekend meal, they will surely become a favorite in your household. Enjoy and happy cooking!
