Description
The Ultimate Reuben Sandwich is a delicious combination of corned beef, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and Russian dressing, grilled to perfection between slices of buttered rye bread.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tablespoon salted butter, room temperature
- 2 slices rye bread (use gluten-free bread if needed)
- 2 ounces cooked corned beef, sliced or shredded, warm
- ½ cup Swiss cheese, shredded (or 2 slices), room temperature
- 2 tablespoons sauerkraut, squeezed, drained, and coarsely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Russian dressing (or Thousand Island dressing)
Instructions
- Butter the outside of each slice of rye bread. On the inside of one slice, sprinkle half of the Swiss cheese.
- Add the warm corned beef over the cheese. Then, layer the sauerkraut and spread the Russian dressing on top. Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the dressing.
- Place the other slice of bread on top, buttered side out.
- Heat a pan over medium heat. Place the sandwich in the pan and grill until golden brown and the cheese has melted, about 2-4 minutes on each side.
- Once both sides are nicely browned and the cheese is gooey, remove from the pan, slice, and serve warm.
Notes
- For a gluten-free option, substitute rye bread with gluten-free bread.
- Ensure that the corned beef is warm before assembling the sandwich for the best texture.
- Adjust the amount of Russian dressing to taste.
