Best BLT Sandwich
- 3 to 4 thick slices double-smoked bacon
- 2 thin slices large heirloom tomato
- 1 handful baby spinach
- 2 slices whole grain bread, lightly toasted or grilled
- 1 1/2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 1/2 tablespoons chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped
- Heat a large saute pan or cast iron pan on medium low heat.
- Lay the strips of bacon in a single layer on the pan.
- Slowly cook the bacon, rendering out the fat, until lightly browned on one side.
- Using a fork or tongs, turn the strips of bacon over to cook the other side.
- When the bacon strips are sufficiently cooked remove from pan and place on a plate lined with a paper towel to absorb the excess fat.
- Pour out excess fat from the pan into a jar or a container to either dispose of or to store.
- (Never pour bacon grease down the sink, it will clog your pipes.)
- In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, adobo sauce, and cilantro.
- Spread mayonnaise over the bread slices.
- Layer the sandwich with sliced tomato, bacon, and spinach.
- Cut on the diagonal.
- Eat immediately.
