- 1 small sweet onion diced
- 2 cloves garlic finely minced
- 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
- 20 ounces coleslaw mix 2 packages

Thousand Island Dressing
- ⅓ cup mayonnaise

- ¼ teaspoon paprika
- Salt optional
Instructions
For the Reuben in a Bowl
- Cut the corned beef into 1⁄2-inch thick cubes.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the corned beef and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, line a plate with a paper towel. Once beef is lightly browned, transfer it to the paper towel-lined plate.
- Add another tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet along with the onion. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent. Add the garlic and caraway seeds and continue cooking for 1 more minute.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil along with the coleslaw mix. Stir to combine and cook until tender but still crisp, about 6-8 minutes.
- Mix in the sauerkraut, corned beef, salt, and black pepper. Top with Swiss cheese and reduce heat to low. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
For the Thousand Island Dressing
- Mix together the mayonnaise, sour cream, ketchup, dill relish, onion, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and paprika in a medium bowl. Salt to taste.
- Serve the warm Reuben filling in a bowl with a drizzle of Thousand Island dressing and a sprinkle of sliced green onions.
Notes
Caraway seeds provide the unique rye bread flavor. You can use homemade corned beef shredded into bite-sized pieces. Store the Reuben bowl and dressing separately in airtight containers.
