Best 5 Grilled Bacon Blts Recipes

SUNNY'S OPEN-FACED GRILLED BLT

Steps:

• For the bread: Preheat the grill to 400 degrees F.
• Lay out the dough on a work surface and sprinkle with the olive oil, parsley, rosemary, garlic, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Fold it over itself and roll out or just press with your hands to make a square that could fit four slices of bread, because that's the goal. (You will eventually want to cut this into fourths to serve.) Place on the direct heat of the grill and cook until it releases from the grill and is slightly golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until done, 5 to 8 minutes.
• For the bacon: Mix the brown sugar, cayenne pepper, zest and a few grinds of black pepper in a bowl. Press the bacon into this mixture and place on a piece of nonstick aluminum foil on the grill. Cook, without flipping, until the bacon is crispy, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from the grill and roughly chop.
• For the tomatoes and lettuce: Brush the tomato slices and lettuce with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper. Place the tomatoes and lettuce directly on the grill and cook, flipping halfway through, until the tomatoes and lettuce are slightly charred, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Build the sandwiches: Mix the mayonnaise, honey, lemon juice and sriracha seasoning in a small bowl. Chop the grilled tomatoes and lettuce. Add the chopped tomatoes to the bread and press them slightly into the bread, then add the chopped bacon and piles of lettuce. Drizzle with the sriracha mayonnaise. Cut into four pieces and serve.

SALMON BLT

Steps:

• Cook the bacon over medium heat in a large nonstick skillet until crispy. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel lined plate. Wipe the skillet with paper towels or a clean tea towel. Add the bread slices and toast until golden brown.
• Pat the salmon dry and season with salt and pepper.
• Heat another nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add oil. Once hot, add the salmon and cook about 3 minutes per side.
• Spread the Lemon Mayonnaise on 2 pieces of bread. Season the tomato with salt and pepper, to taste. Add some lettuce, tomato, bacon and the cooked salmon fillet to 1 bread slice and cover with the other slice. Cut the sandwich in half on the diagonal and hold in place with a decorative toothpick. Repeat with remaining ingredients and arrange the sandwiches on a serving platter.
• Mix all the ingredients together in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

BLT

Steps:

• Cook the bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate.
• Arrange the cooked bacon, lettuce, and tomato slices on one slice of bread. Spread one side of remaining bread slice with the mayonnaise. Bring the two pieces together to make a sandwich.

BACON ON THE GRILL

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-low heat.
• Line a large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a cooling rack on top. Place bacon on rack, making sure no pieces are overlapping.
• Place baking sheet on the grill grate, close the lid, and cook for 12 minutes or until desired doneness. Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess grease.

GRILLED CHICKEN BLT SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Heat closed contact grill 5 minutes. When grill is heated, place bacon on bottom grill surface. Close grill; cook 4 to 6 minutes, turning once, until crisp. Drain on paper towels.
• Meanwhile, place 1 chicken breast, boned side up, between 2 sheets of plastic wrap or waxed paper. With flat side of meat mallet or rolling pin and working from center, gently pound chicken until 1/4 inch thick; remove wrap. Repeat with remaining chicken breast. Sprinkle chicken with Italian seasoning.
• Place chicken on bottom grill surface. Close grill; cook 4 to 6 minutes or until fork-tender and juices run clear.
• Spread toasted bread slices with mayonnaise. Layer lettuce, tomato, chicken and bacon between toast slices.
