Grilled Turkey Reuben Sandwiches

The restaurant I worked at in college made these amazing turkey Rueben sandwiches. They are a hit with everyone, and surprisingly easy. Feel free to adjust the sauerkraut to taste, but don't skimp on the Thousand Island dressing!

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons butter, softened
• 1 cup sauerkraut, drained
• 4 slices Swiss cheese
• 10 ounces sliced deli turkey meat
• 4 slices marble rye bread
• 4 tablespoons Thousand Island dressing, or to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Place turkey on a microwave-safe plate, and sauerkraut in a microwave-safe bowl. Warm them separately in the microwave for 30 seconds each.

Step 2

Spread butter generously on one side of each slice of rye bread. Lay bread slices, buttered-sides down, on a work surface. Spread Thousand Island dressing on the tops of each slice.

Step 3

Divide warmed sauerkraut between two slices of bread. Top those slices with 1/2 of the turkey, then 1/2 of the Swiss cheese. Flip the remaining two bread slices over top to create sandwiches.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet over medium-low heat. Transfer the sandwiches to the hot skillet and cook until the bread is lightly browned and the cheese is melted, about 3 minutes per side.
