Ingredients

  • 12 slices thick cut bacon
  • 3 large green tomatoes
  • 1 cup vegetable or canola oil
  • ¼ cup all purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2 eggs whisked
  • 1/3 cup cornmeal
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 slices bread
  • Lettuce
  • 2 Ripe tomatoes if desired

For The Sauce

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce

Instructions

  • Heat a skillet on medium-high heat and cook bacon until desired crispiness. Remove to a paper towel to drain.
  • Slice the green tomatoes about ¼ inch thickness.
  • In a large bowl whisk the eggs until combined. In another bowl add the flour and cayenne pepper and mix. In a third bowl add the cornmeal, salt, and pepper, and mix.
  • Dunk each green tomato into the flour mixture, then dredge in the egg mixture, followed by the cornmeal. Place tomatoes on a baking sheet or plate. Repeat until all are coated.
  • Heat oil in a skillet (I use cast iron)on medium heat. Cooking in batches add a few tomatoes in the hot oil cook 3-4 minutes then flip and cook 2-3 more minutes. Remove to a paper towel or cooling rack.
  • In a small bowl mix the mayonnaise and sriracha sauce together until combined.
  • Toast bread and assemble the sandwich. Enjoy!
