The Grilled Turkey Reuben is a spin on the classic Reuben sandwich, which traditionally contains corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and Thousand Island dressing on rye bread. This variation substitutes roasted turkey for the corned beef and adds a spicy mayo made with sriracha chili-garlic sauce. The resulting sandwich is a hearty and flavorful option for lunch or dinner. The Grilled Turkey Reuben is best served hot and pairs well with a side of fries or coleslaw.

Instructions

1.	In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and sriracha chili-garlic sauce.
2.	Spread the spicy mayo mixture onto one side of each slice of bread.
3.	On four of the bread slices, layer the sliced cheese and roasted turkey. Top with the sauerkraut.
4.	Close the sandwiches with the remaining bread slices, pressing down lightly.
5.	In a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
6.	Add two of the sandwiches and cook until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 2-3 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining butter, oil, and sandwiches.
7.	Serve hot.
