Categories     Sandwiches

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 slices excellent quality bread, sliced fairly thick, lightly toasted
softened butter
mayonnaise, Duke's, or your favorite
aged white cheddar, sliced about 1/8" thick
6-8 slices thick-cut bacon, cooked to your liking
4 leaves leaf lettuce, washed and patted dry
1 perfectly ripe heirloom tomatoes at room temperature, sliced 1/4" thick
1 avocado, sliced in /4" slices
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Spread each piece of toasted bread with a thin layer of butter and then a generous layer of mayonnaise.
  • Place the white cheddar on the 2 slices of bread that will be the bottoms. Arrange them so they cover the bread as completely as possible.
  • Place the bacon on the cheese so you'll be sure to get bacon in every bite. The bacon I used was really huge--about 1 1/2 oz per slice, pre-cooked weight. If you're using grocery store bacon, you may need more slices. And you can also do the bacon weave before cooking to ensure bacon in every bite.
  • Arrange the leaf lettuce on top of the bacon followed by 3 slices of tomato.
  • Salt and pepper the tomato and then shingle on the avocado slices, 1/2 avocado per sandwich. Lightly salt and pepper the avocado and top with the top slice of bread. Press down lightly.
  • Enjoy!

Provided by Geoffrey Zakarian

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Eight 3/4-inch-thick slices heirloom tomato
1 teaspoon fleur de sel sea salt, plus more for seasoning
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for seasoning
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
12 slices Applewood smoked bacon, cut 1/4-inch thick from slab bacon
1/2 cup julienne strips red onion
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
Four 1/2-inch-thick slices country bread, toasted
1 avocado, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
2 cups butter lettuce leaves
2 tablespoons tarragon leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Place the tomato slices on a tray or large plate. Sprinkle with fleur de sel and black pepper. Drizzle the vinegar and oil over the tomatoes. Allow to sit for 15 minutes.
  • Lay the bacon on a baking sheet, and season with a generous amount of black pepper. Brush some of the juices from the seasoned tomatoes onto the bacon and top with the red onions. Roast the bacon until it is golden brown and the fat has rendered, about 20 minutes.
  • Spread 1 1/2 teaspoons mayonnaise on each slice of country toast. Top each with 3 slices of bacon and the onions. Reserve the bacon drippings. Season the avocado with salt and pepper, and place on top of the bacon. Follow with 2 marinated tomato slices on each sandwich.
  • In a separate bowl, lightly toss the lettuce and tarragon with a small amount of the drippings from the bacon and season as needed with salt and pepper. Top the sandwiches with the salad and serve warm.

You may never want to eat a plain BLT again! Avocados and fried eggs are the perfect complements to this open-face spin on a classic. Enjoy one for any meal of the day.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 ripe avocados, halved, pitted and peeled
3 scallions, whites and light greens chopped
3 scallions, whites and light greens chopped
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Fine salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 slices smoked bacon
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 slices sourdough or crusty white bread, cut 3/4 inch thick
4 large eggs
2 cups loosely packed mixed greens
Four 1/2-inch-thick slices tomato

Steps:

  • Mash the avocados in a medium bowl until chunky-smooth. Stir in the scallions, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper; set aside.
  • Cook the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 4 minutes per side; transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Remove and reserve all but 1 tablespoon of the drippings. Add the butter to the skillet, and swirl to melt and combine with the drippings. Dip both sides of each bread slice in the fat to coat, then cook until browned and crisp, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the toasts to a cutting board. Raise the heat to medium-high. Add 1 tablespoon of the reserved drippings to the skillet, crack the eggs in a single layer, cover and fry until the whites are crisp at the edges but the yellows are runny, about 2 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, spread each toast with 1/4 of the mashed avocado, and transfer to a serving plate with a spatula. Top each toast with 1/2 cup of the greens, 1 tomato slice sprinkled with salt and pepper, 2 slices bacon and a fried egg, and serve with a fork and knife.

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place a rack on top of a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Bake until crispy, about 25-28 minutes for thick-cut bacon (or about 20-23 minutes for thin-cut bacon). Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate to drain. When cool enough to handle, cut each piece in half.
  • Make the aioli: While the bacon cooks, follow the directions to make this Avocado Aioli (or make it up to 2 days in advance).
  • When the bacon is done, turn the broiler on high and arrange the top rack to the center of the oven. Place the bread slices on a sheet pan and broil for about 1 minute per side, until lightly golden brown. Watch closely so it doesn’t burn.
  • Lay out the toasted bread slices on a clean surface. Spread 1 tablespoon of aioli on each piece. On half of the bread slices, top with 2 leaves of lettuce and 2 slices of tomato. Season tomatoes lightly with salt and pepper. Then top with 4 half pieces* of the cooked bacon. Place the remaining bread atop each sandwich and serve.
