Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Wash the romaine lettuce leaves under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Slice the tomato into even rounds. Sprinkle the tomato slices with salt and black pepper to enhance their flavor.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until they are crispy, about 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally. Once cooked, place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess grease.

Assemble the Sandwich

  1. 3

    Spread the Mayo

    Take two slices of sourdough bread and spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on one side of each slice.

  2. 4

    Layer the Ingredients

    On the mayonnaise side of one slice, layer 2 leaves of romaine lettuce, followed by 4 slices of crispy bacon, and then add the tomato slices on top. Season the tomato with a little more salt and black pepper, if desired.

  3. 5

    Complete the Sandwich

    Top with the second slice of bread, mayonnaise side down, to complete the sandwich. Repeat the process to assemble the second sandwich.

Grilling

  1. 6

    Grill the Sandwich

    Preheat a grill or a skillet over medium heat. Place the assembled sandwiches on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve

    Remove the sandwiches from the grill and let them cool for a minute. Cut each sandwich in half diagonally and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious BLT sandwich!
