Turkey Sandwiches Supreme
From the Kitchen of: Kathleen
Great brunch sandwich. Best way I have ever found to use left over turkey breast. Everyone loves these
delicious open-faced sandwiches. Quick and easy to make.
12 | slices | plain Texas toast (or large sandwich bread) |
24 | oz | sliced turkey breast |
1/2 | c | melted unsalted butter |
6 | tbsp | flour |
3 | c | milk |
2 | large | eggs |
1-1/2 | c | Parmesan cheese grated |
24 | slices | bacon fried very crisp |
| | salt and pepper to taste |
- Fry the bacon very crisp and drain well on paper towels. Set aside.
- Make 12 slices of toast. The thick Texas toast type bread is best to use. Trim edges if desired.
- Melt butter in top of a double boiler and stir in the flour until absorbed by the butter.
- Add the milk and half of the Parmesan cheese. Add salt and pepper to your taste.
- Whisk until smooth with a wire whisk, then whisk in the beaten eggs. The mixture will start to
thicken. Do not let it come to a full boil. You just want a good thick sauce. If needed, add a little
more milk, a tablespoon at a time until the sauce is very smooth and thick.
- Remove the sauce from heat and set aside.
- In two large metal baking pans, place the toast with about an inch of space between the slices.
- Cover each slice with sliced turkey and add a generous amount of the sauce on each slice.
- Sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese and broil until the sauce is bubbly and begins to brown.
- Remove from broiler and garnish with two slices of bacon on each sandwich.
- Serve while hot.
Serves 6 to 8.
