Classic Hot Brown Recipes

Steps:

• Set oven control to broil. In 2-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat. Stir in flour, salt and pepper. Cook and stir until smooth and bubbly. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly until mixture boils and thickens. Stir in Cheddar cheese until melted. Remove from heat.
• Spray 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray. Place toast slices in pan. Top each slice of toast with 3 oz turkey, 2 slices tomato, 1/3 cup cheese sauce and 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese.
• Broil with tops about 6 inches from heat 3 to 4 minutes or until lightly browned. Top evenly with bacon; sprinkle lightly with paprika.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in flour with a whisk or fork, and continue to cook and stir until it begins to brown slightly. Gradually whisk in the milk so that no lumps form, then bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Mix in 6 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese and then stir in the beaten egg to thicken. Do not allow the sauce to boil once the egg has been mixed in. Remove from the heat and stir in the cream.
• Preheat the oven's broiler. For each hot brown, place two slices of toast into the bottom of an individual sized casserole dish. Cover with a liberal amount of roasted turkey and tomato slices. Spoon sauce over the top of each one and sprinkle with some of the remaining Parmesan cheese.
• Place the dishes under the broiler and cook until the top is speckled brown, about 5 minutes. Remove from the broiler and arrange two slices of bacon in a cross shape on top of each sandwich. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• To make sauce: melt margarine in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in flour; gradually add milk, stirring with a whisk until blended. Cook until thick (about 10 minutes), stirring constantly. Remove from heat; add cheese, stirring until cheese melts. Stir in sherry and remaining ingredients. Yield: 2 cups
• To make sandwiches: preheat broiler. Arrange toast in a 13 by 9-inch flameproof baking pan or baking dish. Top each toast slice with 2 ounces turkey and 2 tomato slices; sprinkle with pepper. Spoon Cheddar Cheese Sauce evenly over tomatoes, and sprinkle with bacon and paprika. Broil until lightly browned.

Steps:

• put shredded chicken/turkey in bottom of 13 by 9 roasting or cake pan.
• cut bacon into bite sized pieces (I use kitchen shears), and fry in bottom of a large sauce pan until crisp.
• drain bacon drippings.
• put soup and water in pan with bacon and cook over medium heat until blended and heated thru.
• pour over chicken/turkey.
• place in a pre-heated 400 oven for 25-30 minutes or until it begins to bubble.
• pour over hot biscuits or toast.
• enjoy.

Steps:

• Prepare the sandwich: Heat oven to 400 degrees. Cut 4 bread slices in half diagonally. Divide the remaining 4 whole slices among four individual 7-by-9-inch (or other similarly sized) baking dishes (see Tip), and place 2 pieces of halved bread on opposite sides of the bread, positioning the longest side of each triangle closest to the whole slice of bread. The formation will look like a two-way arrow. Nestle a piece of tomato on either side of the whole slices of bread, forming a square shape with the bread triangles. Divide the turkey slices among the whole slices of bread. Transfer the casseroles to the oven to toast as you prepare the sauce.
• Prepare the Mornay sauce: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour until mixture forms a roux. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking frequently, 2 minutes. Whisk heavy cream and milk into the roux and cook over medium until the sauce begins to simmer and thicken, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Remove the sauce from the heat and whisk in 1/2 cup Pecorino Romano until the sauce is smooth. Add nutmeg, salt and pepper to taste.
• Remove the dishes from the oven and pour the Mornay sauce over each, smothering the meat, bread and tomatoes.
• Sprinkle additional Pecorino Romano on top of each dish and broil until the cheese begins to brown and bubble, 4 to 5 minutes, working in batches, if necessary.
• Remove from the broiler and cross 2 slices of bacon over each dish. Sprinkle with parsley and paprika, and serve immediately.
