Method
- 01
Mix mayonnaise, chipotle, and lime juice. Spread a thin layer inside each bread slice.
- 02
Build four sandwiches with turkey, tomato, bacon, and cheese, keeping avocado aside until after griddling.
- 03
Spread the outsides of the bread with butter or mayonnaise. Cook in a covered skillet over medium-low heat for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until the bread is golden and the cheese has melted.
- 04
Open each sandwich carefully, add avocado slices, close, and serve immediately.
- 05
Tip: Adding avocado after griddling preserves its fresh flavor and prevents it from becoming oily or bitter.
