Description
The Reuben Sandwich is a classic American delight, combining savory corned beef, Swiss cheese, tangy sauerkraut, and creamy Russian dressing between slices of rye bread, grilled to perfection.
Ingredients
Herbed Butter:
¼ cup (½ stick, 57 g) butter
½ teaspoon dried minced garlic
½ teaspoon dried minced onion
½ teaspoon sesame seeds
¼ teaspoon poppy seeds
½ teaspoon sea salt
Reuben:
1 pound deli corned beef
1 loaf marble rye bread
1 cup (245 g) Russian Dressing
8 ounces sauerkraut
12 slices Swiss cheese
Instructions
Herbed Butter:
In a small bowl, mix together butter, garlic, onion, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, and salt. Set aside.
Reuben:
Steam the corned beef by placing a small amount at a time (about ¼ pound) in a damp paper towel and placing it in the microwave on high for 30 seconds.
Heat the sauerkraut (cover in the microwave for about 30 seconds or until heated through).
Butter one side of each slice of rye bread using the herbed butter.
Place 2-3 slices of buttered bread on a heated skillet or grill pan over medium-low heat.
Layer the Swiss cheese, corned beef, sauerkraut, Russian dressing, more corned beef, and another slice of cheese. Top with another slice of bread (butter side up).
Heat until the bread is slightly browned and crispy, and the cheese is melted (about 2-3 minutes). Flip and repeat with the opposite side.
Enjoy your delicious Reuben Sandwiches! 
Notes
- Drain the sauerkraut well to prevent a soggy sandwich.
