(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Sandwiches/Wraps

Ingredients

  • Onion Dip Dressing:
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 onions, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, grated or finely chopped
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp each black pepper and white pepper
  • 1/2 tsp ground thyme
  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups Greek yogurt
  • Sandwiches:
  • 1 lb. sauerkraut, drained
  • 1/2 tsp each caraway and cumin seeds
  • Softened butter
  • 8 slices marble rye
  • Brown mustard
  • 8 slices Swiss or Jarlsberg cheese
  • 1 1/4 lbs. thinly sliced cooked turkey
  • Deli pickles and fancy potato chips

Directions

  1. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-low to medium. Add the onions, garlic, and sugar; season with the salt, black and white peppers, and thyme. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are caramel in color, about 20 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup water and stir to evaporate, 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the Greek yogurt.

  2. Meanwhile, for the sandwiches, in a small pot, warm the sauerkraut and the caraway and cumin seeds over low heat just until heated through, about 5 minutes.

  3. After the onions have cooked for about 15 minutes, heat a griddle or grill pan over medium. Lightly butter one side of each bread slice and build sandwiches by layering the mustard, half of the cheese, a little sauerkraut, the turkey, onion dip, and then the remaining cheese between the bread slices. Cook until the bread is golden and the cheese melts, about 2 minutes per side. Cut in half. Serve with the pickles and chips.
