Winter BLT Sandwiches image

The classic version of this sandwich may seem synonymous with summer, but our variation suffers no seasonal deficiency, thanks to roasted tomatoes and hearty arugula.

Yield Makes 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cans (14 1/2 ounces each) diced tomatoes, drained
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 pound sliced applewood-smoked bacon
8 slices white bread, toasted if desired
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
Freshly ground pepper
4 cups baby arugula

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Stir together tomatoes, garlic, oil, and salt in a bowl. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Roast until tomato mixture looks dry, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board, and let cool slightly. Finely chop; set aside.
  • Working in batches, fry bacon in a heavy skillet over medium heat, flipping once, until crisp, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain.
  • Spread 1 side of each bread slice with mayonnaise. Top half the slices with tomato mixture; season with pepper. Layer with arugula then bacon, dividing evenly. Top with remaining bread slices.
