Categories     appetizer

Time 35m

Yield 6 to 8 stuffed tomatoes

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 ounces bacon, chopped
3 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan
1 teaspoon mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
Pinch kosher salt
1/2 heart of romaine lettuce, shredded
6 to 8 cocktail or Campari tomatoes

Steps:

  • Place the bacon in a small skillet; heat over medium heat until beginning to sizzle. Reduce the heat to medium low; cook until crisp and golden brown, about 8 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the fat in the pan.
  • Add the breadcrumbs to the hot bacon fat; cook, stirring often, until lightly toasted and crunchy, about 3 minutes. Remove the breadcrumbs to a separate paper towel-lined plate, spread evenly, and then sprinkle with the Parmesan to melt slightly.
  • With a rubber spatula, mix together the mayonnaise, lemon juice and salt in a bowl. Add the shredded romaine; toss well to coat.
  • Cut a small amount off the bottom of each tomato to create a flat surface to sit on. Then cut off the tops as well. Run a small knife around the inside of the tomatoes to loosen the flesh. Using a 1/2-teaspoon measuring spoon, scoop out and discard the insides of each tomato.
  • Divide the bacon among the tomatoes, pushing it down slightly. Top with some of the romaine, followed by the bacon-parmesan breadcrumbs. Serve at room temperature.

BLT BITES



BLT Bites image

Turn your favorite sandwich into a light snack or a party appetizer to wow your guests! These mini open-face BLTs are a total crowd-pleaser and they look beautiful arranged on a big platter.

Provided by Catherine McCord

Categories     appetizer

Time 20m

Yield 16 bites

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 slices bacon
1 baguette, sliced into 16 rounds
1/2 cup light mayonnaise
2 to 3 romaine lettuce leaves, torn into sixteen 2-inch pieces
4 small tomatoes, cut into 16 slices
2 scallions, chopped
Maldon sea salt

Steps:

  • Lay the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat and cook until crispy on both sides, flipping once, about 10 minutes. Remove the bacon to a plate and blot any excess grease with paper towels. Let cool slightly then cut each bacon strip into 4 equal pieces.
  • While the bacon is cooking, heat a griddle over medium-high heat. Add the baguette slices and cook, watching closely, until golden, 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
  • Spread each baguette slice with mayonnaise. Stack the toppings on each slice in the following order: lettuce leaf, tomato slice, bacon, and a sprinkle of scallions and sea salt.
  • Arrange on a platter and serve.

Tips:

  • For crispy bacon, cook it in a single layer in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until desired crispness is achieved.
  • To make sure the BLT bites are cooked evenly, use a toothpick to poke holes in the bottom of each dough cup before baking.
  • If you don't have refrigerated pizza dough, you can use a store-bought refrigerated pie crust. Just cut it into 12 equal pieces and press each piece into a greased mini muffin cup.
  • Use fresh, ripe tomatoes for the best flavor. If your tomatoes are not very juicy, you can add a tablespoon of tomato sauce or salsa to the filling.
  • For a cheesy BLT bite, sprinkle some shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese on top before baking.
  • Serve the BLT bites warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing, ketchup, or honey mustard.

Conclusion:

BLT bites are a quick, easy, and delicious appetizer or snack that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or game day gatherings. With just a few simple ingredients, you can have these tasty treats ready to enjoy in no time. So next time you're looking for a fun and easy recipe, give BLT bites a try!
