Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the applewood smoked bacon until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Turn occasionally to ensure even cooking. Once cooked, remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel to drain excess grease.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Spinach

    In the same skillet, remove excess bacon grease, leaving about 1 tablespoon. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet and heat over medium heat. Add the fresh spinach and sauté until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Brie

    While the spinach is sautéing, slice the brie cheese into thin pieces. If you prefer, you can leave the rind on or remove it, depending on your taste.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    Take the baguette or artisan bread and slice it in half lengthwise. Layer the sautéed spinach evenly on the bottom half of the bread. Next, add the crispy bacon slices over the spinach, followed by the brie cheese slices.

  2. 5

    Finish with the Top Half

    Place the top half of the bread over the assembled ingredients. Optionally, you can lightly press down on the sandwich to help meld the flavors together.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve

    Slice the sandwich into portions and serve immediately while warm. Enjoy your Beechcraft sandwich!
