MONTREAL REUBEN SANDWICH

Montreal Reuben Sandwich image

My favorite sandwich is a corned beef Reuben, but finding one in a restaurant that's done to perfection is challenging. The best one I ever had was in Montreal. This comes real close!

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 teaspoon salted butter, softened
2 slices pumpernickel bread
3 slices Swiss cheese
2 teaspoons Thousand Island salad dressing
4 slices deli sliced corned beef
¼ cup sauerkraut, drained
1 large dill pickle, sliced

Steps:

Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Lightly butter one side of each bread slice. Place buttered-sides down on the preheated skillet. Place 1 1/2 pieces of Swiss cheese on top of each bread slice, then spread Thousand Island on top.
While sandwich halves are toasting, place corned beef on one side of a microwave-safe plate and sauerkraut on the other side. Cover with a dampened paper towel and microwave on high for 90 seconds.
Remove bread from the skillet. Add hot corned beef and sauerkraut and close to form a sandwich.
Serve with dill pickle.
