Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bread slices
- 1 medium Tomato
- 0.5 medium Onion
- 0.5 medium Cucumber
- 1 Jalapeño (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Pepper
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 cup Tortilla chips
- 1 tablespoon Butter
Instructions
Finely chop the tomato, onion, cucumber, and jalapeño (if using).
Combine the chopped vegetables in a bowl along with the cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper to create a fresh salsa. Mix well and set aside.
Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on one side of each bread slice.
Crush the tortilla chips lightly in a separate bowl to create small crunchy pieces.
On two bread slices (mayonnaise side up), add a generous layer of the prepared salsa.
Top the salsa with a handful of crushed tortilla chips for added crunch.
Place the remaining bread slices (mayonnaise side down) on top to create sandwiches.
Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
Toast each sandwich in the pan for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy.
Remove the sandwiches from the pan, slice in half, and serve immediately.
