Ingredients

1 - 2 tablespoons Thousand Island dressing
2 slices rye bread
3 ounces thin sliced turkey can be leftover or deli turkey
¼ cup sauerkraut
2 slices swiss cheese
½ tablespoon butter softened

Instructions

Spread the Thousand Island dressing on each slice of bread. Top half of the slices with cheese, corned beef, and sauerkraut.
Top each sandwich with remaining bread slices, dressing side down.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan on medium heat. Divide the butter and melt half the butter in the skillet and place the sandwiches in the pan. Butter the top side of the sandwich bread. Cook until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 4 to 5 minutes per side, turning in the middle of cooking.
Cut in half before serving warm.

Notes

Leftover turkey breast is great in this sandwich but make sure to slice it thin or it can be shredded.

Cole slaw can be substituted for the sauerkraut if that is your preference.

This sandwich is best served warm and made right before serving.
