CHICKEN A LA KING
From Mom, Billie Reid and Judi Troyer (Betty Crocker)
This is a dish Mom made for us when we were young...then I made it for my family, too.
1 can (4 oz.) mushrooms, stems and pieces, drained; liquid reserved*
1 small green pepper, chopped*
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup flour
1 t. salt
1/4 t. pepper
1 1/2 t. instant chicken bouillon
1 1/2 cups milk
1 1/4 cups hot water
2 cups cooked chicken or turkey, chopped
1 jar (4 oz.) pimento, chopped
Toasted Bread
Cook and stir mushrooms* and green pepper* in butter over medium heat 5 minutes; remove from heat. Blend in flour, salt and pepper. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is bubbly; remove from heat.
Stir in instant bouillon, milk, water and reserved mushroom liquid. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute. Stir in chicken and pimento; heat through.
Serve over toast.
*Note: My family didn't like the mushrooms or green pepper in this. I substituted about a cup of frozen peas and added them toward the end, just before adding the chicken. We also added chopped green olives sometimes rather than only pimento.
