Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Caramelize the Onions

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onions and a pinch of salt, cooking slowly until they become golden brown and caramelized, about 15-20 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In another skillet, cook honey pepper bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let it drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Prepare Dijon Mayo

    In a small bowl, mix together the Dijon mustard and mayonnaise until well combined.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread the Dijon mayo on one side of each slice of bread. Layer caramelized onions, crispy bacon, lettuce leaves, and slices of Havarti cheese on the mayo side of two slices. Top with the other two slices of bread, mayo side down.

  5. 5

    Grill the Sandwich

    In a skillet over medium heat, grill the sandwiches for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from skillet, slice in half, and serve warm.
