Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

12 bacon slices (about 10 ounces)
12 slices firm white sandwich bread
unsalted butter, softened, for spreading on toast if desired
1 pound sliced roast turkey breast
For sauce
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups milk
1 large egg yolk
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan (about 3 ounces)
freshly ground white pepper
2 tablespoons well-chilled heavy cream

Steps:

  • In a large heavy skillet cook bacon in batches over moderate heat, turning it, until golden brown and crisp. Transfer bacon as cooked to paper towels to drain.
  • Toast bread and if desired discard crusts and lightly butter toast. Arrange toast on 6 flameproof plates and divide turkey among toasts.
  • Preheat broiler.
  • Make sauce:
  • In a 2- to 3-quart heavy saucepan melt butter over moderately low heat and whisk in flour. Cook roux, whisking constantly, 3 minutes. Add 2 cups milk in a stream, whisking, and bring sauce to a boil, whisking. Simmer sauce, whisking occasionally, 5 minutes.
  • While sauce is simmering, in a bowl whisk together yolk and remaining cup of milk. Whisk about 1 cup sauce into yolk mixture. Remove pan from heat and whisk yolk mixture into sauce with Parmesan. Cook sauce over moderately low heat, whisking constantly, until a thermometer registers 160°F. Remove pan from heat and season sauce with white pepper and salt. In a small bowl whisk cream until it just holds stiff peaks and stir into sauce.
  • Spoon sauce evenly over turkey and sprinkle Parmesan evenly over sauce. Broil sandwiches in batches about 2 to 3 inches from heat until sauce is lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
  • Arrange 2 bacon slices in an X on each serving.

I'm not a huge fan of Hot Browns, but I thought this recipe was pretty good. The bread was nice and crispy and the cheese was melted and gooey.

The Hot Browns were a little too rich for my taste, but my husband loved them. I'll probably make them again, but I'll use less cheese next time.
