Ingredients
  

Sandwich Ingredients
  • 4 slices artisan sourdough bread Thick-cut (120g)
  • 6 oz thick-cut deli turkey breast (170g)
  • 4 strips cooked bacon (45g)
  • 0.5 medium green apple Thinly sliced, like Granny Smith (75g)
  • 4 slices sharp yellow cheddar cheese (85g)
  • 2 tbsp creamy honey mustard sauce (30ml)
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter Softened (15g)

Equipment

  • 1 Large Skillet Cast iron or non-stick.
  • 1 Chef's Knife For thinly slicing the apples.

Method
 

Assembly and Cooking
  1. Cook the bacon in a skillet until the edges are charred and crispy. Core the green apple and cut it into very thin slices.
  2. Lay out the artisan sourdough slices. Spread the creamy honey mustard evenly on the interior side of the top slices. On the bottom slices, layer the folded thick-cut deli turkey breast, crispy bacon strips, and fanned thin slices of green apple.
  3. Place the sharp yellow cheddar slices over the apples, letting the edges hang slightly so they cascade as they melt. Top with the mustard-coated bread slice.
  4. Butter the top exterior of the sandwich. Place butter-side down in a skillet over medium-low heat. Butter the new top exterior. Cover with a lid to trap steam. Toast for 3-4 minutes until golden-brown, carefully flip, cover, and toast another 2-3 minutes until the cheese is completely melted.

Notes

Fold the turkey breast instead of laying it flat to create a lighter, more tender bite.
Use a lid while toasting the sandwich to ensure the sharp cheddar cheese fully melts without burning the sourdough bread.
