In a separate pan, roll the oysters in 1/4 cup of bread crumbs. Broil or fry the oysters until cooked through and lightly browned, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- 3Place one slice of the sautéed bread on a plate, top with 2 lettuce leaves. Arrange the cooked oysters on the bread, and grate horseradish over each oyster. Cover with the graham or rye bread. Layer the chicken or turkey slices on top, season with salt and pepper, and add the bacon. Top with the second slice of sautéed bread.
- 4Cut the lemon slice into a square and place it on top of the sandwich. Arrange the sweet pickles and radishes around the lemon to form a star shape. Serve the tomato on a lettuce leaf on the side. Cut out the hard center of the tomato and fill the opening with tartare sauce. To make the tartare sauce, combine mayonnaise, finely chopped onion, olives, sweet pickles, and celery. Squeeze the celery dry in a cloth before adding.
