Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Bake the bacon on a broiler pan until crisp, about 15 mins.

While bacon is working, arrange the bread on a baking sheet and lightly toast in the oven, about 5 mins.

In a large skillet, heat a drizzle of EVOO over medium high heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning once, until golden, 4-6 mins. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the butter and hot sauce.

In a small bowl, mash the avocado with garlic and lemon juice. Season with salt. In another small bowl, mash the blue cheese and creme fraiche. Spread the avocado mash on 4 toasts and top each with a lettuce leaf, a chicken breast half, 2 tomato slices, an onion slice and 2 crisscrossed bacon strips. Spread the blue cheese dressing on the remaining toasts and set on top. Slice the sammies into 4 triangles each.
