Ingredients

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 200ºF (93ºC); line a baking sheet with a wire rack and set aside.
  • Spread one side of each bread slice with ½ teaspoon oil. In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 teaspoon oil over medium-low. 
  • Place 2 slices of bread, oiled side down, in skillet. Spread 2 tablespoons Russian dressing on each slice of bread, then top each with ¼ pound turkey, ¼ cup sauerkraut and 2 slices cheese. Top each with 1 slice bread, oil side up. 
  • Cook until bottom side is golden and crispy, about 5 minutes. Flip sandwiches and continue to cook, pressing down gently with a spatula, until bottom side is golden brown and cheese is melted, about 3 minutes more.
  • Transfer sandwiches to prepared sheet and keep warm in oven; wipe out skillet. Repeat with remaining teaspoon oil, bread, sauce, turkey, sauerkraut and cheese. Serve immediately.

Notes

Pastrami can be used in place of the deli turkey. As can corned beef or any preferred sliced deli meat.
