Ingredients
8 thick slices turkey bacon
1/4 cup pitted Kalamata olives
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon anchovy paste
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 to 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 thick slices of Swiss peasant bread
2 ripe tomatoes, cored and thinly sliced
Thin slices sweet onion
8 ounces very thinly sliced smoked skinned chicken breast
1 or 2 kirby cucumbers, seeded and thinly sliced
Directions
- Start to cook the bacon so that it becomes crisp. In a blender or food processor puree the olives, mustard, anchovy paste, olive oil, vinegar, and garlic; season to taste with salt and pepper and adjust amount of vinegar for tang.
- Toast the bread lightly. Remove bacon to paper towels to drain.
- To assemble, spread each slice of bread with olive mixture, on one side only. Set some bacon on bottom of bread, then top with tomato and onion slices, chicken and cucumber; salt and pepper each layer lightly as you go. Top with bread, mayonnaise side down; repeat with second layer of fillings and finish with third slice of bread, olive mixture side down. Assemble the second sandwich in the same way.
