To start out, slice up your onion and caramelize it according to the recipe while you prepare the rest of the sandwich. Also, get your broiler heated up.
I make this delicious BLT sandwich on sourdough bread. Seriously, it makes all the difference. Sourdough slices tend to be long ovals that do not fit in my toast, so I have to cut my two slices in half. Toast the sourdough halves. Spread mayo on the bottom halves and then mayo, followed by guacamole. Yes, guacamole! It is awesome!
Top the mayo/guac halves with a lettuce leaf and then tomato slices.
Top the bottom halves with bacon slices and then a slice of Swiss cheese. Put these halves under the broiler to melt the cheese. Remove from the broiler and top generously with the caramelized onions. Put the top and bottom slices together and devour!
The Ultimate BLT Sandwich
Ingredients
- 2 Tbs. Olive Oil
- 1 Onion about the size of a baseball, sliced
- 2 Slices Sourdough Bread
- Mayonnaise
- 3 Tbs. Guacamole
- Leaves of Lettuce
- 4-6 Slices Tomato
- 4 Strips of Bacon Full-Size Pre-cooked
- 2 Slices Swiss Cheese
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium-low heat. Add the onion slices and stir them around a bit. Allow the onions to sit over the heat, only stirring here and there so they will caramelize. They should be brown, not black. If they are blackening, turn your heat down. It will take 5-7 minutes for the onions to caramelize. Meanwhile...
- Heat up your broiler.
- Take two large slices of sourdough bread and toast them. I had to cut them in half to fit them in my toaster.
- Spread the toasted bottom halves with just mayo.
- Spread the toasted top halves with mayo, then guacamole. Add a lettuce leaf and tomato slices. Set aside.
- Place the bacon slices on the bottom halves, followed by the Swiss slices. Put the bottom halves under the broiler long enough to melt the cheese. Remove from the heat and top them with generous amounts of caramelized onions.
- Put the halves together and enjoy!
