The New York Club sandwich is a visually striking and delicious classic American sandwich celebrated for its meticulously layered ingredients. In our version, we use wafer-thin chicken slices, a slice of Swiss cheese, shredded lettuce and pan-toasted, crustless bread.

📝 Ingredients

  • 12 slices bread (toasted, crusts removed (optional))
  • 16 teaspoons mayonnaise
  • 12 slices chicken (wafer-thin)
  • lettuce (shredded)
  • 4 slices emmental cheese (or cheese of choice)
  • 8 bacon rashers (cooked till crispy)
  • tomato (thinly sliced)
  • salt and pepper (to taste)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Place your first slice of toasted bread on your work surface.
  2. 2Spread a little bit of mayo on the toasted bread. We typically use about one teaspoon, but use more or less depending on the size of your slice.
  3. 3Arrange the chicken or turkey slices on the mayo. Make sure to fluff them up to add some visual appeal and height to the sandwich.
  4. 4Cover the chicken with some shredded lettuce. Just be mindful not to add too much, or you might find it challenging to keep the sandwich neat and tidy.
  5. 5Place a slice of cheese on top of the lettuce. You might need to trim the cheese to make it fit the sandwich.
  6. 6Spread mayo on a second slice of toasted bread.
  7. 7Put the slice on top of the cheese, with the mayo side facing the cheese.
  8. 8Spread mayo on the top side of the bread slice.
  9. 9Put the bacon slices on top of the mayo. You may need to trim or break the bacon in half to make it fit neatly on the slice.
  10. 10Gently place enough tomato slices on top of the bacon to cover the entire surface of the sandwich. Season with salt and pepper.
  11. 11Arrange another layer of shredded lettuce on top of the tomato slices.
  12. 12Spread mayo on the third and final slice of bread.
  13. 13Put the bread, with the mayo side facing down, on top of the lettuce.
  14. 14Slice the sandwich into four equal quarters. Press down on as much of the surface area as you can while cutting to keep it together. A sharp bread knife is ideal for this task.
  15. 15Pierce a toothpick or a cocktail stick through each quarter. If you have a longer stick, you can thread two sandwiches.
  16. 16Serve the sandwich fresh with potato chips or fries and some pickles on the side.
