Step-by-Step Instructions for Reuben Sandwich

  • On a clean surface, lay two slices of hearty rye bread. Generously layer each slice with a cup of corned beef, and follow with a scoop of sauerkraut.
  • Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of Swiss cheese on top of the layers, letting it promise melty goodness. Top each sandwich with remaining slices of rye bread.
  • Heat a skillet over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes. Optionally melt a tablespoon of butter or drizzle oil into the pan.
  • Place the Reuben Sandwiches into the skillet, grilling for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cheese is melted.
  • Remove sandwiches from skillet once both sides are browned. Slice them in half and serve warm.

Notes

Quality ingredients enhance flavor. Ensure skillet is well-heated for grilling. Don't skip the butter or oil for a golden crust.
