Description
This classic Reuben Sandwich is a delightful combination of corned beef, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and a zesty Russian dressing, all grilled to perfection between slices of rye bread.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 lb corned beef
- ½ tsp olive oil
- 6 slices rye bread
- 2 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup sauerkraut
- 6 slices Swiss cheese
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 1/2 tsp chili garlic sauce
- 1/2 tsp lemon juice
- 1 ½ tsp creamy horseradish
- 1 garlic clove
- ½ tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 Tbsp onion
- ⅛ tsp paprika
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix together mayonnaise, chili garlic sauce, lemon juice, horseradish, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, grated onion, paprika, salt, and pepper to create the Russian dressing.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Spread butter on one side of each slice of rye bread.
- On the unbuttered side of three slices of bread, layer the corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and a spoonful of Russian dressing. Top with the remaining bread slices, buttered side facing up.
