Montreal Reuben Sandwich

My favorite sandwich is a corned beef Reuben, but finding one in a restaurant that's done to perfection is challenging. The best one I ever had was in Montreal. This comes real close!

Ingredients

• 3 slices Swiss cheese
• 1 teaspoon salted butter, softened
• 2 slices pumpernickel bread
• 2 teaspoons Thousand Island salad dressing
• 4 slices deli sliced corned beef
• ¼ cup sauerkraut, drained
• 1 large dill pickle, sliced

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.

Step 2

Lightly butter one side of each bread slice. Place buttered-sides down on the preheated skillet. Place 1 1/2 pieces of Swiss cheese on top of each bread slice, then spread Thousand Island on top.

Step 3

While sandwich halves are toasting, place corned beef on one side of a microwave-safe plate and sauerkraut on the other side. Cover with a dampened paper towel and microwave on high for 90 seconds.

Step 4

Remove bread from the skillet. Add hot corned beef and sauerkraut and close to form a sandwich.

Step 5

Serve with dill pickle.
