Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 8 ounces (226 grams) deli-sliced turkey breast
- 4 slices rye bread
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
Condiments and Spreads:
- 4 tablespoons (60 milliliters) Russian dressing
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) coleslaw
Cooking Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons (30 grams) unsalted butter
Instructions
- Generously coat one side of each rye bread slice with Russian dressing, ensuring complete coverage.
- Arrange Swiss cheese slices evenly across the bread, creating a smooth foundational layer.
- Add generous portions of turkey meat on top of the cheese, distributing uniformly for balanced flavor.
- Carefully spoon coleslaw over the turkey, spreading it to create a consistent texture and taste profile.
- Flip the remaining bread slices dressing-side down, pressing gently to seal the sandwich components.
- Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat, allowing it to coat the pan surface evenly.
- Carefully transfer assembled sandwiches into the heated skillet, cooking for approximately 3-4 minutes until the bottom turns golden brown.
- Flip sandwiches using a spatula, cooking the opposite side for an additional 3-4 minutes until cheese melts and bread achieves a crispy, caramelized texture.
- Remove sandwiches from skillet, allowing excess butter to drain briefly.
- Slice diagonally and serve immediately while warm and crisp.
Notes
- Customize dressing by mixing Russian dressing with a touch of sriracha for extra kick.
- Use low-fat Swiss cheese and lean turkey for a healthier version of the sandwich.
- Ensure even browning by pressing sandwiches gently with a spatula while cooking.
- Swap rye bread with gluten-free alternatives for those with wheat sensitivities.
