How to make it
6 steps. Take it one step at a time.
Place bacon strips
Place bacon strips in a cold skillet. Turn heat to medium and fry, flipping occasionally, until crisp. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain.
10 minToast the bread slices
Toast the bread slices until golden brown and crisp.
Spread mayonnaise evenly
Spread mayonnaise evenly over one side of each toasted bread slice.
On one slice of bread, layer the lettuce leaves followed
On one slice of bread, layer the lettuce leaves followed by the tomato slices. Sprinkle the tomatoes with salt and black pepper.
Arrange the cooked bacon strips
Arrange the cooked bacon strips on top of the tomatoes. Close the sandwich with the second slice of bread, mayonnaise-side down.
Cut the sandwich diagonally
Cut the sandwich diagonally and serve immediately while the bacon is still warm.
A little kitchen wisdom
For the best results, use thick-cut bacon and high-quality sourdough bread. Seasoning the tomatoes directly makes a huge difference in flavor.
