Categories     Main Course

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup salted butter
8 ounces mushrooms (sliced)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken broth
1 1/2 cups milk
2 egg yolks
1/3 cup heavy creamy
1 cup frozen peas
1 cup chopped drained pimientos
4 cups chopped cooked chicken

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.

CHICKEN A' LA CAN CAN



Chicken A' La Can Can image

Chicken A' La Can Can is an easy and quick recipe, perfect for the busy family. I always use 98% fat-free soups. (For some reason, it will only post the 98% fat-free cream of celery soup as simply low fat.) It is from a church cookbook and the notation beside it says that it was used to serve large groups. Our family really has enjoyed it over the years. One and a half cups of cubed chicken may be substituted for the canned chicken.

CHEF JOHN'S CHICKEN A LA KING



Chef John's Chicken a la King image

Chicken à la King is one of my favorite classic comfort foods. This recipe is easy to adapt--you can make it thicker or thinner by changing the amount of roux and having a little extra stock on hand. Usually I make this with leftovers from a large roasted chicken. Serve over pasta, toast, rice, or mashed potatoes.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ pound sliced mushrooms
2 large shallots, minced
1 cup diced sweet bell peppers
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup dry sherry
3 ½ cups chicken stock or broth
1 pinch freshly grated nutmeg
1 pinch cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons fresh thyme
1 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian parsley
⅓ cup creme fraiche or heavy cream
4 cups cubed roasted chicken
Chopped fresh chives for garnish

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and salt. Saute until mushrooms release their moisture. Continue cooking until moisture evaporates and mushrooms begin to brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Add shallots; cook and stir just until shallots soften, 3 or 4 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Stir in flour to coat the mushrooms; cook until flour begins to turn golden, about 5 minutes, to form roux. Add peppers; cook and stir about 1 minute. Pour in sherry wine; allow to sizzle about 30 seconds. Stir in stock. Raise heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer. When it starts to bubble, reduce heat to medium-low and cook until slightly thickened, 10 to 15 minutes stirring occasionally. Add nutmeg and cayenne pepper.
  • Stir in thyme, parsley, cream, and chicken. Reduce heat to low and cook until chicken is heated through, about 5 minutes. Check seasonings and adjust as needed. Top each serving with some chopped fresh chives.
