Mini Club Tea Sandwiches
Ingredients
- 10 slices American cheese
- 1 loaf sliced white bread (about 20 slices)
- ¾ cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons adobo sauce, from a can of chipotles in adobo
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 head Boston lettuce, separated into leaves
- 20 slices cocktail tomatoes (2 per sandwich)
- 1½ pounds store-bought carved turkey
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 7 slices cooked bacon, cut into thirds1 avocado, sliced
- Sea salt
- Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Method
- Use a small round cookie cutter to cut circles out of the cheese and bread. (You may also use the rim of a small GLASS to create the round shape; aim to get 2 circles out of each piece of cheese.) Toast the bread until lightly toasted.
- In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, adobo sauce, and salt and pepper to taste. Stir with a spoon until combined.
- Assemble the sandwiches: Start by spreading the bread with the chipotle mayo; layer with a lettuce leaf (torn to match the size of the bread), 2 slices of cheese, 2 slices of tomato, some turkey, a slice of avocado and a piece of bacon.TOP with a second slice of bread and skewer with cocktails forks. Sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt and drizzle with olive oil.
