Super Mashers with Chicken Cordon Bleu Hash

Preparation

1. Step 1

   Prepare the sauce as directed in the master recipe, #255.

   Step 2

   Boil the potatoes until tender and return to the hot pot. Mash with the prepared sauce and salt and pepper.

   Step 3

   While the potatoes cook, heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the EVOO, then add the ham steak and cook for 3 minutes on each side to warm through. Remove the ham to a plate and add another tablespoon of the EVOO and the chicken to the pan. Season with salt and pepper and cook for 3 minutes on each side. Add the wine to the pan and deglaze it, then cook off the liquid. Cut the chicken and ham into thin strips. Sprinkle with chopped thyme leaves.

   Step 4

   Pile the mashers onto heat-proof plates and top with ham and chicken strips and some shredded cheese. Place under the broiler just long enough to melt and lightly brown the cheese. Garnish with the chives.
