CHICKEN A LA KING, YUMMY COMFORT FOOD



Chicken A La King, Yummy Comfort Food image

Chicken A La King is one of those dishes that seems to be reinvented by every family and restaurant. The dish is relatively easy to produce, and you probably have most of the ingredients in your fridge and pantry. However you make it, it's best served over some nice homemade biscuits, or possibly my Wholesome Cheddar Waffles....

Categories     Chicken

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 c white button mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 c yellow onion, chopped, about 4 ounces
1/4 c celery, chopped, about 2 ounces
2 Tbsp scallions, chopped
6 Tbsp sweet butter, unsalted
1/4 c all-purpose flour
salt, kosher variety, to taste
black pepper, freshly ground, to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
1/8 tsp ground cumin (optional)
1 c chicken stock
1 c milk, whole fat
2 c chicken, cooked and cubed
1 c green peas, frozen variety will do nicely

Steps:

  • 1. Gather and prep all of your ingredients.
  • 2. Chef's Note: Some people like their mushrooms with more of a bite to them. If that's the case quarter them; instead of thinly slicing.
  • 3. Add the butter to a sauté pan over medium heat.
  • 4. When the butter stops foaming, add the onions, mushrooms, and celery.
  • 5. Sauté until the veggies are tender and just starting to crisp.
  • 6. Reduce heat to medium low, and then add the flour, and stir to incorporate.
  • 7. Add the milk, and chicken stock and continue to stir until fully incorporated.
  • 8. Add the other dry spices, salt, pepper, cayenne, cumin, and season the dish to taste.
  • 9. Keep stirring until you have removed all of the lumps, and it begins to thicken, about 5 to 7 minutes (depending on the heat of the pan).
  • 10. Add the cubed chicken and peas, and return the pan to a light simmer.
  • 11. Chef's Note: If you happen to be making this dish around Thanksgiving, and you're not sure what to do with the leftover turkey... Well, here ya' go.
  • 12. Continue to simmer for an additional 2 minutes.
  • 13. Serve over toast, good homemade biscuits, or my Wholesome Cheddar Waffles... or whatever you choose. Enjoy.
  • 14. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
