Description
This Turkey Melt with Bacon has a creamy dijonnaise sauce and is loaded onto buttery toasted sourdough. A must try lunch recipe that only takes about 15 minutes to whip up. It has so many delicious flavors and is so easy to make!
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 teaspoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 slices sourdough bread
- 1/3 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded from the block
- 4-5 slices of deli turkey
- 2 slices original bacon, cooked and sliced in half (or leave them whole if you have big enough bread)
- 1 tablespoon salted butter
Instructions
- In a small bowl, stir together the dijon mustard, mayonnaise, salt and pepper until combined.
- Spread onto the inside of each slice of bread. Note: I like to really lather mine on.
- Layer shredded cheese on top of the sauce, then add turkey slices and bacon. Carefully close it up and press down with your hand on the sandwich to seal it.
- Into a medium skillet over medium heat on the stovetop, melt half the butter. Add the sandwich and cover with a lid for about 2-3 minutes. This will help warm up the turkey deli meat and melt the cheese. Add remaining butter, flip and cook for another few minutes until the bread is nice and toasted.
- Slice in half, serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Shred the cheese yourself for a better melt. Bagged, pre-shredded cheeses contains preservatives that don't melt well.
- Cover the sandwich up for a few minutes once you place it on the pan to make sure the turkey warms up and the cheese melts entirely.
