Step 1
Spread 0.5 tbsp butter on one side of each bread slice. Spread Russian dressing on the other side of each slice.
Step 2
On two bread slices (dressing-side up), layer half the corned beef, then 1 cheese slice, then half the sauerkraut.
Step 3
Top each with the remaining two bread slices, butter-side up. Press down gently.
Step 4
Heat a skillet over medium-high. Slide one sandwich in and cook 3–4 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
Step 5
Flip and cook the other side 3–4 minutes until bread is golden and cheese melts completely.
Step 6
Repeat with the second sandwich. Serve hot.
