Classic BLT Sandwich

Steps

  1. Line a sheet pan with foil or parchment and lay the bacon on it in a single layer.
  2. Put the pan in a cold oven, then set it to 400°F (200°C). Starting cold helps the bacon cook flat.
  3. Bake until the bacon is browned and crisp.
  4. Move the bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain.
  5. Toast the bread until golden.
  6. Lay the tomato slices on a plate and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  7. Spread mayonnaise on one side of each slice of toast.
  8. Layer lettuce, tomato and 4 strips of bacon on 2 of the slices, then top with the remaining toast, mayo side down.
  9. Cut each sandwich in half and serve right away.
