Ingredients
  • 10 slices bacon
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh basil
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 8 slices white sandwich bread
  • 8 cherry tomatoes, sliced
  • ¾ cup shredded little gem lettuce
Directions
  1. Preheat the broiler to medium-high heat.
  2. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with aluminum foil and placing a grill rack on top.
  3. Lay out the bacon slices onto the rack.
  4. Cook the bacon under the broiler for 8 to 10 minutes, turning once, until the edges are turning golden.
  5. Remove bacon from the oven and set aside to cool on a paper towel-lined plate.
  6. In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, basil, chives, and black pepper to taste.
  7. Lightly toast the slices of sandwich bread.
  8. Slice the crusts off of the bread.
  9. Slice each piece of sandwich bread into four equal-sized squares.
  10. Chop each slice of bacon into four similar-sized pieces.
  11. Assemble the mini BLT sandwiches by first spreading a bit of the herby mayonnaise on two slices of bread.
  12. Place a piece of lettuce onto one slice of the bread, on top of the mayonnaise.
  13. Add two pieces of bacon on top of the lettuce.
  14. Top the bacon with two pieces of tomato, and top with the other half of the bread. Place a cocktail skewer through the mini BLT to hold it together.
  15. Repeat the process until all mini BLTs are assembled, then serve immediately.
