Ingredients
- 6 slices Thick-cut bacon
- 1 large Ripe tomato
- 4 leaves Crisp lettuce leaves (such as romaine or iceberg)
- 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 4 slices Rustic sourdough bread
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Butter (optional, for toasting)
Directions
Step 1
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Step 2
Cook the thick-cut bacon slices in the skillet until crispy, turning occasionally. This should take about 8-10 minutes.
Step 3
Transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess grease.
Step 4
While the bacon is cooking, slice the tomato into 1/4-inch thick slices and set aside.
Step 5
Wash and pat dry the lettuce leaves. Ensure they are crisp and vibrant.
Step 6
Spread mayonnaise evenly on one side of each of the slices of sourdough bread.
Step 7
If you prefer toasted bread, butter the other side of each slice and toast them in a skillet or under a broiler until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Step 8
Assemble the sandwich by layering two pieces of crispy bacon, tomato slices, and lettuce leaves on one slice of bread (mayonnaise side facing up). Sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper on the tomato slices to enhance their flavor.
Step 9
Top with another slice of bread (mayonnaise side facing the filling) to complete the sandwich.
Step 10
Repeat the assembly process for the second sandwich.
Step 11
Slice each sandwich in half and serve immediately.
