Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices Sourdough bread
- 4 slices Roasted turkey breast
- 0.5 whole Avocado
- 4 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 2 teaspoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
Instructions
Toast the sourdough bread slices in a toaster or on a skillet over medium heat until golden and crisp, about 2-3 minutes per side.
In a small bowl, mash the avocado with a fork. Mix in the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to taste for added flavor.
Spread olive oil evenly on one side of each sourdough slice. Sprinkle the fresh rosemary evenly over the sides with olive oil.
On the un-oiled side of one bread slice, spread a thin layer of mayonnaise.
Layer the roasted turkey slices evenly on top of the mayonnaise spread.
Place the fresh basil leaves evenly over the turkey slices.
Spread the mashed avocado mixture on the un-oiled side of the second slice of bread.
Assemble the sandwich by placing the avocado-side bread on top of the basil and turkey layer, oil-side facing outwards.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwich onto the skillet and gently press down with a spatula. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bread is golden and crisp.
Flip the sandwich carefully and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes, applying gentle pressure with the spatula.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet, slice it in half, and serve warm.
