Description

The TikTok Viral Picklewich Sandwich is a quick and fun no-cook sandwich recipe that uses large pickle halves as a low-carb, refreshing substitute for bread. It combines tangy pickles, creamy mayo, savory turkey, fresh tomato and onion slices, American cheese, and crisp Romaine lettuce into a delightful handheld meal perfect for a light lunch or snack.

Ingredients

Sandwich Ingredients

  • 1 large pickle
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 2 slices turkey lunch meat
  • 1 large slice tomato
  • 1 large slice red onion
  • 1 slice American cheese
  • 1 large Romaine lettuce leaf

Instructions

  1. Slice the pickle: Cut your pickle in half lengthwise to create two wide halves that will serve as the sandwich ‘bread’.
  2. Scoop out seeds: Using a spoon, gently scoop out the seeded center of each half to make a shallow trench, leaving enough flesh to keep the pickle halves sturdy.
  3. Dry the pickle halves: Pat both halves dry with a paper towel to prevent sogginess and slipping when assembling.
  4. Prepare the bottom half: Choose the flatter pickle half as the bottom piece. If it won’t sit flat, flip it so the outside is up and carefully slice a bit off the rounded edge to create a stable base.
  5. Spread mayo: Spread mayonnaise inside each hollowed-out pickle half in the trenches where you removed the seeds for added moisture and flavor.
  6. Add turkey: Fold the turkey lunch meat and layer it into the pickle groove, letting some edges hang over slightly for a classic deli look.
  7. Layer tomato and onion: Slice the tomato and onion halves further if needed and carefully stack them atop the turkey, starting with the tomato slice.
  8. Add cheese and lettuce: Cut the American cheese slice in half and layer it in, then add the Romaine leaf on top to complete the filling.
  9. Secure the sandwich: Align the top pickle half over the stuffed bottom half and insert three toothpicks—one on each end and one in the middle—to hold everything together securely.
  10. Slice and serve: Cut the assembled Picklewich in half for easier handling and enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Make sure to pat the pickle dry thoroughly to prevent the sandwich from becoming soggy.
  • Use toothpicks to keep the sandwich intact and prevent the ingredients slipping out.
  • This sandwich is best enjoyed fresh to maintain the crispness of the lettuce and pickle.
  • You can customize the sandwich by adding mustard or swapping out turkey for ham or roast beef.
  • To make it vegetarian, replace turkey with extra cheese or grilled vegetables.
