Ingredients

  • 5 tbsp unsalted butter, divided
  • 6 oz button mushrooms, trimmed and quartered
  • 2 tbsp minced scallions
  • 1/8 cayenne pepper
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • 3/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 cup dry sherry
  • Dry sherry, fresh lemon juice, salt, and black pepper
  • 1 cup diced cook chicken
  • 1/2 cup frozen green peas, thawed
  • 2 oz jar sliced pimentos, drained and minced
  • Shredded Manchego cheese
  • Sliced scallion greens

Directions

  1. Melt 3 tbsp butter in a saute pan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and cook until brown and moisture evaporates, about 10 minutes; transfer to a bowl. Reduce heat to medium; melt remaining 2 tbsp butter. Add 2 tbsp scallions and cayenne; cook until scallions soften, 1-2 minutes.

  2. Sprinkle flour into pan and cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Slowly whisk in broth, milk, and 1/4 cup sherry until smooth. Simmer sauce until thick, about 7 minutes; season with additional sherry, lemon juice, salt and pepper.

  3. Stir in chicken, peas, pimentos, and mushroom mixture; simmer to heat through, 3-5 minutes.

  4. Serve hash over Waffle Hash Browns; garnish with Manchego and sliced scallion greens.
