Open Faced Turkey Sandwich With Mushroom Gravy Recipes

OPEN-FACED TURKEY SANDWICH WITH MUSHROOM GRAVY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shallot and thyme; cook until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add mushrooms; saute until they release liquid and are soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Add Madeira, raise heat to high, and saute until liquid is cooked away, 3 to 5 minutes. Add gravy; cook until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
• Meanwhile, slice turkey into about 1/4-inch-thick slices, and add to the gravy. Heat until turkey is hot, about 1 minute. Toast bread under the broiler on both sides until golden but still soft.
• Place toast on serving plates, spoon 1 or 2 tablespoons gravy over toast, and scatter watercress on top. Arrange turkey over toast, and spoon mushrooms and gravy over meat. Serve warm.

HOT TURKEY SANDWICH

Steps:

• Heat gravy in a skillet until bubbly: If the gravy is too thick, thin with a little stock or water.
• Add pieces of sliced cooked turkey meat to the gravy: Coat with the gravy on all sides and heat until the meat is heated through.
• Arrange a slice of bread on a plate: Rustic French or Italian loaf would work great. Top with sliced turkey and gravy.

OPEN-FACED TURKEY/GRAVY WITH MUSHROOMS SANDWICH

Steps:

• 1. Heat EVOO in sautè pan and add onion and celery. Sautè until tender, add garlic and sautè another minute or so until garlic is tender, being careful not to burn garlic or it will become bitter. While cooking onion mixture, heat gravy in a saucepan. Add onion mixture when done, add mushrooms, Worcestershire, Italian seasoning, a couple of splashes of lemon juice, black pepper, heat slowly. In the same sautè pan, slowly warm turkey breast. Slice open deli rolls on serving plate, add turkey, place Provolone cheese atop sliced turkey and pour gravy mixture over all. (We like to then warm ours in the microwave about 45 seconds to melt the cheese and soften the rolls.) It's also great with some leftover cranberry sauce on top. NOTE: We also like this sandwich made with roast beef and brown gravy. Either kind of sandwich is great with toasted ravioli, fries, chips or whatever you choose.
