1 1/2 cups milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1/4 cup chopped yellow onion
1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup dry sherry
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon leaves

1/2 teaspoon white pepper
3 large egg yolks
2 1/2 cups shredded cooked chicken
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
6 biscuits, of chef's choice

1
Heat the milk and cream over low heat and set aside keeping hot.
2
In a deep skillet, melt the butter. Saute the mushrooms, onions and peppers until softened. Put the garlic in the pan with the vegetables and saute for another minute.
3
Sprinkle in the flour while stirring the vegetables and cook for 2-3 minutes until the flour turns golden.
4
Add the sherry and allow the alcohol to evaporate for about a minute.
5
Pour in the milk and cream and mix well.
6
Add the chicken stock, mix well again.
7
Bring the pot to a gentle boil, and then reduce heat and stir until the sauce becomes thicker. Blend in the tarragon, salt and pepper. Take off the heat and keep warm.
8
Beat the egg yolks until they look foamy. Spoon out a small amount of the white sauce and mix in with the egg yolks. With a whisk, stir in this egg mixture to the pot of white sauce. Add the chicken, parsley, and lemon juice and simmer the whole pot over low heat until heated through.
9
Place warm biscuits halved on a plate and spoon the chicken sauce over them.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
