Chicken A La Impress Me Recipes

CLASSIC CHICKEN A LA KING

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add in mushrooms and cook until mushrooms are soft, about 5 minutes.
• Add in flour and stir until there are no more specks of flour left. Pour in chicken broth and milk and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until sauce is thickened, about 3 minutes.
• For a richer sauce: in a small mixing bowl, whisk together egg yolks with heavy cream. Working quickly, slowly pour in 1/2 cup of the hot mixture into the egg mixture while whisking vigorously. Immediately pour this mixture back into the saucepan, whisking the entire time. Cook 2 minutes more.
• Stir in frozen peas, drained pimientos, and cooked chicken and let heat through, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Serve hot over cooked rice, pasta, toast, or biscuits.

Steps:

• Add the butter to a large skillet (with a fitted lid) or a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. As soon as the butter has melted, add the diced bell pepper, onion, celery, mushrooms, 1 teaspoon Kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Stir the mixture until evenly coated in the butter. Reduce the heat to medium, cover and cook for about 6 minutes -- just until everything has softened.
• Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir for about 1 minute. Add the chicken broth one big splash at a time, stirring until completely mixed and smooth after each addition.
• Once all of the broth has been incorporated, stir in 1 teaspoon Kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
• Stir the peas and the cream, and bring to a simmer. Simmer for about 5 minutes more, then stir in the chicken.
• Serve over biscuits, rice, or pasta and enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place the biscuits 1 to 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the biscuits are golden brown, 13 to 17 minutes. Remove biscuits to cool, and set aside. Cut meat from the rotisserie chicken into bite-size pieces, and set aside.
• Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion, carrots, mushrooms, salt, and black pepper. Cook and stir until the onion has softened, the carrots are tender, and the mushrooms have released their liquid, about 7 minutes. Stir in the red bell pepper and cook for 2 more minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour to form a thick paste. Continue cooking, whisking constantly, until the flour has lost its raw smell, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the white wine, increase the heat to medium-high, and simmer for 1 minute. Whisk in the chicken broth and whipping cream and bring the sauce to a boil. Reduce the heat, stir in the shredded chicken, and simmer for 7 minutes.
• Pour the chicken mixture into the skillet containing the vegetables and adjust the heat to medium. Add the asparagus and cook until the asparagus pieces are tender, about 4 minutes. Stir in the peas and tarragon and mix well.
• Place a split biscuit on each plate and pour the chicken mixture over the biscuits.
