How to Make Classic Club Sandwich

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Cook bacon until crisp. Set aside on paper towels.
  2. Toast bread slices until lightly golden brown and crisp. Let cool slightly.
  3. Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on one side of each of the three bread slices.
  4. On the first toasted bread slice (mayo-side up), layer 1 lettuce leaf and 2 tomato slices.
  5. Top with 2 slices of bacon and half the sliced chicken.
  6. Place a second toasted bread slice on top (mayo-side up).
  7. Repeat layers with remaining ingredients (bacon, chicken, lettuce, and tomato).
  8. Top with the third toasted bread slice (mayo-side down).
  9. Gently insert cocktail sticks into the sides of the sandwich, ensuring they go all the way through to hold the layers together.
  10. Using a serrated knife, carefully cut the sandwich diagonally into 4 triangles. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
