Here’s a classic Club Sandwich recipe — crispy, stacked, and full of flavor:
Ingredients (makes 1 sandwich, scale as needed)
- 3 slices bread (white, whole wheat, or toasted)
- 2–3 slices cooked turkey or chicken
- 2 slices bacon, cooked until crisp
- 2 slices tomato
- 2 leaves lettuce
- 1–2 slices cheddar or Swiss cheese (optional)
- Mayonnaise
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Toast the bread
- Lightly toast all three slices until golden brown.
- Spread mayonnaise
- Spread mayonnaise on one side of each slice of bread.
- Layer the first level
- Place lettuce, tomato slices (lightly salted), and turkey/chicken on the first slice of bread.
- Top with the second slice of bread.
- Layer the second level
- Add bacon, cheese (if using), and extra lettuce.
- Top with the third slice of bread.
- Secure and serve
- Use toothpicks to hold the sandwich together.
- Cut diagonally into quarters for a classic club presentation.
Tips
- Crispy bacon adds great texture.
- Optional additions: avocado, pickles, or mustard.
- Presentation: Serve with potato chips or fries for a diner-style experience.
If you want, I can also give a slow-cooker or “easy prep” version where the chicken or turkey is shredded and ready for quick assembly — great for making multiple sandwiches at once. Do you want that version?
