Cuisine: American
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 4 slices of bread
- 4 slices of bacon
- 1 large tomato, sliced
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high heat (around 375-400°F).
- Place bacon slices on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side until crispy and golden brown, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking. Remove bacon and set aside on paper towels to drain excess grease.
- While bacon is cooking, slice the tomato and avocado into thin, even slices. Sprinkle tomato slices with a pinch of salt and pepper to enhance their flavor.
- Lightly butter or brush one side of each bread slice with olive oil to prepare for grilling.
- Place bread slices on the grill, oil-side down, and toast for 1-2 minutes until golden brown grill marks appear. Flip and briefly toast the other side.
- Remove grilled bread and spread mayonnaise evenly on the inner sides of each slice.
- Layer the sandwich by placing crispy bacon slices, tomato slices, and avocado slices on two of the bread pieces.
- Sprinkle additional salt and freshly ground black pepper over the avocado and tomato to taste.
- Close the sandwiches by placing the remaining toasted bread slices on top.
- Cut sandwiches diagonally and serve immediately while ingredients are warm and bread is crispy.
Tips
- Choose high-quality bacon for maximum flavor—thick-cut varieties work best for achieving that perfect crispy texture.
- Make sure your grill or grill pan is preheated to ensure beautiful grill marks and even toasting.
- Use ripe but firm avocados to prevent mushing when slicing.
- Brush bread with olive oil instead of butter for a lighter, crispier finish.
- Season your tomatoes and avocados with salt before assembling to enhance their natural flavors.
- Serve immediately after grilling to enjoy the sandwich at its peak crispiness and warmth.
- For an extra kick, consider adding a dash of hot sauce or red pepper flakes to spice things up.
