Club Sandwich



Ingredients
• 4 slices white bread
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 2 lettuce leaves
• 4 slices vine-ripened tomatoes
• salt and ground black pepper
• 2 slices crispy cooked bacon
• 2 sliced roasted chicken
• 4 frill picks, or plastic cocktail swords
Serving suggestions:
• Potato chips
• Sweet Pickles
Method
Toast the bread in a toaster, or under a broiler on both sides. Cut the lettuce leaves in half crosswise and form into 8 neat stacks.
To make a double-decker club: On a clean work surface, arrange 3 bread slices in a row. Spread 1 tablespoon mayonnaise over 1 side of each bread slice. Place a lettuce stack on top of the first bread slice, top with 2 tomato slices, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Place 2 slices bacon over the tomatoes (broken to fit neatly if necessary) and top with 1/8 of the chicken. Season the turkey with salt and pepper, to taste. Repeat with the second bread slice. Carefully place the second layered bread slice on top of the first layered bread, turkey side-up. Cover with the third bread slice, mayonnaise side-down.
Pin the sandwich's layers together by piercing them with 4 frill picks or cocktail swords through the top bread slice, in 4 places in a diamond-like pattern, all the way to the bottom bread slice. Repeat entire process with the remaining ingredients to form 3 more sandwiches.
