Steak-and-Mushroom Reubens

This steak and mushroom Reuben offers a sophisticated, high-protein twist on the classic New York deli sandwich. By swapping traditional corned beef for lean, pan-seared flank steak and earthy shiitake mushrooms, this recipe provides a satisfying depth of flavour while remaining surprisingly light. The combination of peppery steak, fermented sauerkraut and nutty Gruyère cheese creates a complex savoury profile that is perfectly balanced by the sweet tang of Thousand Island dressing and the crunch of toasted rye bread.

Ideal for a nutritious weekend lunch or a quick midweek dinner, these toasted sandwiches are a fantastic way to enjoy a high-quality protein meal that feels truly indulgent. The addition of shiitake mushrooms adds a wonderful meaty texture, making the portions go further while adding essential nutrients. Serve them warm from the pan while the cheese is perfectly melted for the ultimate homemade deli experience.
