Serves/Makes: 8 | Ready In: < 30 minutes
Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter, plus additional for greasing pan
3 cups whole milk
1/4 cup flour
salt
black pepper
1 pinch cayenne pepper
8 thick slices large French bread
2 jars (12 ounce size) marinated artichoke hearts packed in oil
1 pound smoked turkey or chicken breast, thinly sliced
8 ounces Brie cheese, sliced 1/4-inch thick
4 ounces Gruyere cheese, grated
Directions:
Heat a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt, stirring occasionally.
In a separate saucepan, bring the milk to a boil over medium-high heat.
Stir the flour into the melted butter using a wooden spoon and stir for 2 minutes. Let the mixture bubble but do not let it brown.
Slowly whisk the hot milk into the flour mixture and stir until smooth and the sauce comes to a boil. Reduce the heat to a low simmer and let cook for 10 minutes, whisking frequently. Season the sauce to taste with salt, pepper, and cayenne.
Set the oven to broil.
Butter a baking sheet and place the slices of bread on it evenly spaced.
Drain the artichoke hearts from the marinade and cut them into slices.
Spread 2-3 tablespoons of the white bechamel sauce over each slice of bread. Arrange the artichoke slices on top. Layer slices of turkey or chicken and brie. Top with a sprinkling of grated gruyere over each sandwich.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and broil for 3-4 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Watch closely as they can burn quickly.
Serve hot.
