Whether you're seeking a gourmet twist on a classic sandwich or an effortlessly satisfying lunch idea, the Turkey Bacon and Havarti Sandwich checks all the boxes for flavor and simplicity.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the turkey bacon slices for 3-4 minutes on each side until crispy. Remove and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate.
Spread butter evenly on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard. Spread the mixture evenly on the non-buttered side of two slices of bread.
Layer the sandwich: place one slice of Havarti cheese on each prepared slice of bread with mayonnaise, then add 2 slices of cooked turkey bacon, one leaf of lettuce, and tomato slices (thinly sliced) on top of each.
Cover each sandwich with a second slice of bread, buttered side facing out.
Heat the skillet again over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted.
Remove sandwiches from the skillet, slice in half, and serve immediately while warm.
