Ingredients

4 slices Rye bread
2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
8 ounces Corned beef
4 slices Swiss cheese
1 cup Sauerkraut
4 tablespoons Thousand Island dressing
2 teaspoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Spread a thin layer of unsalted butter on one side of each rye bread slice. Place the slices butter-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 3

Evenly divide the corned beef into four portions and place a portion on each slice of bread.

Step 4

Top the corned beef with an equal amount of sauerkraut, spreading it out gently to cover the meat.

Step 5

Place a slice of Swiss cheese over each portion of sauerkraut, ensuring the cheese fully covers the sandwich ingredients.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.

Step 7

Remove the sandwiches from the oven and drizzle approximately 1 tablespoon of Thousand Island dressing over each sandwich.

Step 8

Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve warm.
