BLT sandwiches with avocado topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 220 g bacon slices
- 4 plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise
- 1 whole grain baguette, cut into 4 pieces and halved horizontally
- 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 clove of garlic
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 avocados, halved and thinly sliced
- 1 cup frisee or other green salad
- Coarse salt
Preparation:
- Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Season the tomato slices with salt.
- Heat a grill pan over high heat. Brush the baguette slices with olive oil and grill, cut side down, until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Rub the grilled sides with garlic.
- Rub the tomatoes onto the cut sides of the bottom halves of the bread until most of the juice has been absorbed, then top with the remaining tomatoes and season with salt and pepper.
- Place avocado slices on top of the tomatoes, then add the bacon and frisée. Top with the top halves of the bread.
