Cooking steps
  1. 1

    Toast all 6 slices of bread until golden brown, then let them cool slightly to maintain crispness.

  2. 2

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon strips until crisp, then transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat.

  3. 3

    Slice the tomato thinly and season with a pinch of salt and black pepper to enhance freshness.

  4. 4

    Spread a thin, even layer of mayonnaise on one side of each bread slice, ensuring full coverage to prevent sogginess.

  5. 5

    To assemble: Place one slice of bread, mayo-side up, and layer on half the turkey, 2 bacon slices, lettuce, and tomato. Top with a second bread slice (mayo-side down on fillings, mayo-side up on top). Repeat layering remaining turkey, bacon, lettuce, and tomato, then cap with the final bread slice, mayo-side down. Press gently and secure with toothpicks before slicing into halves or quarters.
