Blt Sandwich With Pesto Sauce Food

BLT SANDWICH WITH PESTO SAUCE

Steps:

• Butter one side of the slices of bread. This will be the outside slices of the sandwiches.
• Spread pesto sauce on one side of two of the slices. Then layer with bacon, lettuce, and tomato. Place top slice on both sandwiches.
• Grill sandwiches on stove top (or use a panini press), until bread is slightly browned on both sides.

FRESH MOZZARELLA BLT WITH PESTO

Steps:

• Slice the baguette open, leaving one side attached to form a hinge. Cook the bacon in a skillet over low heat until crispy; drain on paper towels.
• Combine the pesto with the mayonnaise and smear on the bottom part of the bread. Layer the romaine on the bread, then the tomato, bacon and mozzarella. Season with salt and pepper; close the sandwich and wrap in parchment paper.

SALMON BLT SANDWICH

Steps:

• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).
• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and extra crispy, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels.
• While the bacon is cooking, place bread on a baking sheet and use a pastry brush to lightly coat the tops with olive oil.
• Toast bread, without turning, under the preheated broiler until crispy (like a crouton), about 4 minutes, watching carefully as it toasts. Remove from the oven and set aside.
• Add remaining oil to a large skillet with butter. Season salmon with salt and place skin-side down in the hot pan. Cook until skin is crispy and salmon is nearly cooked through, about 6 minutes. Flip and cook until top side of fish is just browned, 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove from the pan, discard skins, and sprinkle with seasoned salt.
• Spread 1 tablespoon mayonnaise on the untoasted side of a bread slice. Top with 1 salmon fillet, 1 tablespoon pesto, 2 lettuce leaves, 2 tomato slices, 2 slices bacon, 1 slice Havarti cheese, and a slice of bread, toasted-side out. Repeat to assemble remaining sandwich.

PESTO BLTS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, pesto and pepper. Spread evenly over one side of each slice of toast. On two slices, layer with cheese, bacon, lettuce and tomato; top with remaining toast.

CLASSIC BLT SANDWICH

Steps:

• Cook bacon until crispy, then drain on paper towels.
• Toast the 8 slices of bread.
• Spread 1 tablespoon mayo on each slice of toasted bread. (More or less, to taste).
• Add 1 slice of lettuce to 4 pieces of mayo-spreaded toast.
• Add 2 slices of tomato on top of lettuce.
• Arrange 3 slices of bacon evenly on top of tomato. (Break bacon slices in half to fit, if needed.).
• Add 1 slice of lettuce on top of bacon.
• Put the remaining 4 pieces of mayo-spreaded toast on top to finish the sandwiches.
• Enjoy!
• NOTE: I also like to butter the toast slices before adding the mayo -- higher in fat, but tastier, in my opinion!

THE WORLD'S BEST B L T SANDWICH

Steps:

• First make the house dressing, by combining all ingredients in a blender except for the olive oil.
• With the motor running, very slowly drizzle in the olive oil and mix until it is fully combined.
• Under a broiler or on a griddle, lightly toast the inside of the baguette.
• Combine the mayonnaise and pesto.
• Spread the pesto mayonnaise all over the inside of both halves of the baguette.
• Lay the bacon along the length of the bottom half of the bread.
• Lay the tomato slices on top of the bacon and drizzle with the house dressing.
• Fill the remaining cavity with the lettuce leaves.
• Close the sandwich tightly.
• Cut on the diagonal with a sharp serrated knife into 2 to 4 pieces.
• You may need toothpicks to keep the sandwiches together.
