Thoughts on things

The acronym means bacon, avocado, chicken and tomato. This sandwich is truly a monster.

This recipe will make two heaving sandwiches.

First, grab yourself a nice, big boneless chicken breast. Slice it up into strips, and throw it into a plastic baggie along with a chopped garlic clove, some olive oil, a good dash of balsamic vinegar, and some salt and pepper. Put it in the fridge for a couple of hours.

You also need four thick and heavy strips of bacon, and a handful of cherry tomatoes. Cut the tomatoes in half, and fry the chicken, bacon and tomatoes in a hot frying pan until everything is done. Now spread butter on both sides of four big slices of bread, and fry the slices in the same pan until they are nicely brown and crispy.

Get your avocado. You need one that’s really mature and soft, not dry and hard. Cleave it in twain, remove the pit, and carve out the flesh with a spoon. Cover two of the slices of bread with avocado, and the other two with mayonnaise (and get yourself a good and tasty one. I prefer Hellman’s, which is the only non-crap mayo you can get in Norway). Put the chicken, bacon and tomatoes between two slices.

Warning: Remember to wash your face afterwards. Do not eat on first date.
