Best New Yorker Onion Sandwich Recipes

THE NEW YORK REUBEN

Steps:

• To make the dressing: combine all the dressing ingredients together, mixing well.
• Store, covered, in the refrigerator until ready to use.
• To make the sandwich: Butter one side of each slice of bread.
• Put the first slice, buttered side down, in a large skillet.
• Pile on the slices of corned beef and swiss cheese; spread with approximately 1 tablespoon dressing, and add the sauerkraut.
• Top with the other slice of bread, buttered side up.
• Cover and grill slowly over low heat for 5 minutes or until the bread is golden brown.
• Uncover, turn the sandwich over, increase heat to medium-high; grill until golden brown on the second side.
• Cut sandwich in half and serve immediately with kosher dills or "half sours" (partially dilled pickles).

ONION SANDWICH

• Slice onion into med slices, spread mayonnaise or miracle whip onto both slices of bread add the salt and the pepper to the mayonnaise add onions and enjoy.

ONION SANDWICH

Steps:

• Using a 1 1/2-inch cutter, cut 24 rounds from the bread and arrange in 12 pairs. Spread each round with mayonnaise.
• Slice the onions through the equator, evenly and thinly, and put a slice that fits the bread on half the bread rounds. Salt lightly, then cover with a second round of bread.
• When sandwiches are assembled, spread remaining mayonnaise on a piece of parchment paper, and have the chopped herbs ready in a bowl.
• Hold a sandwich, and roll the edge in mayonnaise, then in the chopped herbs, covering the edge. Cover and chill for about 1 hour and up to 6 hours before serving.

BEST EVER TURKEY ONION SANDWICH

Steps:

• Place the onions in a bowl and add a couple of teaspoons of water- I also like to add a boullion cube for extra flavor (+5 calories), but be careful with this if you're watching sodium.
• Cover with plastic wrap and nuke onions for about 3-5 minutes or until floppy.
• Meanwhile, spray one side of each slice of bread with the butter spray.
• Lay one piece spray-side down in a skillet and top with the cheese.
• You might want to add a squirt of spray over the cheese if the kind you use doesn't melt well.
• When the onions are done, take them out and spoon them over the cheese on the bread.
• Next, add the 3 slices of turkey.
• Spread the unsprayed side of the other slice of bread with the Miracle Whip (or fat free mayo) and the mustard.
• Place this slice on top- spray side up!
• Heat the skillet over medium heat, toasting the sandwich a couple of minutes on either side or until golden brown.
• When done, remove the sandwich, peel apart, stuff in the lettuce, smoosh back together, and CHOW DOWN!
• I included calorie and fat counts for every ingredient so that it will be easy to make substitutions and still know the exact nutritional information- I realize that not everyone loves onions as much as I do!
• Some other good ingredients are roasted bell peppers, mushrooms, tomato, or anything else you love!
