Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 slices Turkey breast slices
- 4 slices Bacon
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese
- 4 slices Sourdough bread
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 cup Baby spinach leaves
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
Instructions
Begin by cooking the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until it is crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Drain on a paper towel and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard together to create a spread. Set aside.
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
Place two buttered slices of bread, butter-side down, in the skillet or griddle.
Spread 1 tablespoon of the mayo-mustard mixture on the upward-facing side of each bread slice in the skillet.
Layer each slice with 3 slices of turkey, 2 slices of cooked bacon, and 2 slices of cheddar cheese. Sprinkle a small pinch of salt and pepper on top.
Add a small handful of baby spinach leaves on top of the cheese, then place the remaining slices of bread on top of each sandwich with the buttered side facing up.
Cook the sandwiches for about 3-4 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and crispy.
Carefully flip each sandwich and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the second side is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, let them cool for 2 minutes, and then slice in half before serving.
