Tips:
- For the roasted turkey, use a high-quality, free-range turkey for the best flavor.
- Roast the turkey at a high temperature (425°F) for the first 30 minutes to crisp the skin, then reduce the temperature (350°F) for the remaining cooking time to ensure the turkey cooks evenly throughout.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the turkey is cooked to the proper internal temperature (165°F) before removing it from the oven.
- Let the turkey rest for at least 15 minutes before carving to allow the juices to redistribute.
- For the avocado-bacon-onion relish, use ripe avocados for the creamiest texture.
- Cook the bacon until crispy, then drain it on paper towels to remove excess grease.
- Dice the onion finely so that it blends well with the other ingredients.
- Season the relish with salt, pepper, and lime juice to taste.
- For the aioli, use good quality mayonnaise for the best flavor.
- Finely chop the garlic and parsley so that they distribute evenly throughout the aioli.
- Season the aioli with salt, pepper, and lemon juice to taste.
- Assemble the sandwich by spreading aioli on both sides of the ciabatta bread, then layering the roasted turkey, avocado-bacon-onion relish, and arugula.
- Serve the sandwich immediately.
