A swipe of creamy mayonnaise adds a hint of tanginess, tying everything together in this indulgent yet simple meal. Ready in just 30 minutes, this hearty sandwich is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or even a quick dinner. Whether you’re a BLT purist or looking for a fresh take, the BLET is guaranteed to impress!
1. Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.
2. While the bacon cooks, slice the tomato into thin rounds. Set aside.
3. In the same skillet, carefully crack the eggs into the bacon drippings and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 3 minutes. For firmer yolks, cook an additional 2 minutes.
4. Lightly toast the sourdough bread slices in a toaster or on a hot skillet until golden brown.
5. Spread 1/2 tablespoon of mayonnaise on one side of each bread slice.
6. Assemble the sandwich: place two lettuce leaves on the bottom slice of bread, followed by the tomato slices, two slices of bacon, and one fried egg. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper over the egg. Top with the other slice of bread, mayonnaise side down.
7. Repeat for the second sandwich.
8. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious BLET sandwich!
