Description
There’s something undeniably comforting about a warm, melty sandwich – and the Cheddar and Bacon Turkey Melt is the ultimate indulgence. Imagine layers of tender turkey, crispy bacon, and gooey cheddar cheese, all nestled between slices of perfectly toasted sourdough bread.
Ingredients
- Sourdough bread
- Butter
- Cheddar cheese
- Sliced turkey breast
- Crispy turkey bacon
- Mayonnaise
- Dijon mustard
Instructions
1. Start by spreading a thin layer of butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
2. On the unbuttered side of the bread, layer the cheddar cheese, sliced turkey, and crispy turkey bacon. In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard, then spread this mixture over the turkey and bacon. Top with another slice of sourdough bread, buttered side out.
3. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Carefully place the assembled sandwich in the hot pan and cook until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side. Flip the sandwich gently to ensure even cooking and a perfectly crispy exterior.
4. Once the Cheddar and Bacon Turkey Melt is grilled to perfection, serve it hot and melty. Consider pairing it with a side of crisp pickles, a fresh garden salad, or a steaming bowl of tomato soup for a truly satisfying meal.
Notes
While the classic Cheddar and Bacon Turkey Melt is a winning combination, you can experiment with different cheese varieties, such as Swiss or pepper jack, to suit your personal tastes.
Keep a close eye on your Cheddar and Bacon Turkey Melt while it’s grilling to ensure the perfect level of crispness and melted cheese. Adjust the heat and cooking time as needed to achieve your desired level of toastiness.
