For the garlic aioli

Directions

Prepare the garlic aioli

  • In a small bowl, combine garlic, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard together. Mix well and let sit for 15 minutes for the flavors to meld.
  • Add the mayonnaise and whisk until smooth.
  • Taste and season with kosher salt and more lemon juice as needed.

Cook the bacon

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place bacon in a single layer on the baking sheet, then put it in the oven on the lowest rack.
  • Cook for 15–20 minutes, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F.
  • Remove the bacon from the oven and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

Make the BLT

  • Preheat a griddle or large pan over medium-high heat.
  • Spread butter on one side of each bread slice.
  • Toast the buttered sides on the griddle or pan until golden brown. Remove from heat.
  • Spread the non-toasted sides with garlic aioli, then top with bacon, tomato slices, and lettuce.
  • Serve whole or cut in half. Tip: Use cocktail picks to secure the sandwich until you’re ready to dig in.

*Cook bacon to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) with a 3-minute rest.
