Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with foil. Place a wire rack on top and arrange bacon strips without overlapping.
- Place the bacon in the cold oven and bake 15–20 minutes, checking around 18 minutes until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and let cool.
- Allow bacon grease to cool, replace foil, and prepare the turkey breast on the same sheet. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C).
- Drizzle turkey with olive oil and season liberally with salt and pepper. Roast for 60–70 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- While the turkey roasts, cut the top off a garlic bulb, drizzle with 1 teaspoon olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and wrap in foil. When turkey has 40 minutes remaining, add garlic to the oven.
- Remove turkey and garlic from the oven. Let turkey rest before slicing and squeeze roasted garlic cloves into a small bowl.
- Slice turkey breast thinly and mash garlic cloves. Stir in mayonnaise, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt to make aioli.
- Toast three slices of bread per sandwich. Spread about 2 tablespoon garlic aioli evenly over the slices.
- On the first slice, layer lettuce, 4–6 oz sliced turkey, and 2 slices cheddar. Top with second slice of bread, then add 2 bacon strips, ½ avocado, and 2 tomato slices. Finish with the last slice of bread.
- Cut sandwiches in halves or quarters and secure with toothpicks. Serve immediately.
