BLT Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the thick sliced bacon until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Flip occasionally for even cooking. Once done, place on paper towels to drain excess fat.

  2. 2

    Toast the Bread

    In the same skillet or using a toaster, lightly toast the sourdough bread until golden brown.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Tomato

    While the bacon is cooking, slice the tomato into thick slices and season with salt and black pepper.

  4. 4

    Assemble the BLT

    Spread a generous layer of garlic aioli on one side of each slice of toasted sourdough bread. On two of the slices, layer the crispy bacon, followed by the seasoned tomato slices, and a handful of arugula. Top with the remaining slices of bread, aioli side down.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Cut the sandwiches in half and serve immediately.
