Chicken and Sauerkraut = Reuben image

I went to the local deli purchased boneless, skinless chicken breast! Wanted to make some kraut, so I threw this together not knowing the outcome until I was finished! It turned out much, much better than expected.Try it and I think you will agree! Try this Thousand Island Dressing from one of our fellow chef's! Graybert the recipe number is 100355. You will not buy Thousand Island Dressing in a store again after trying this.
