Chicken a la King


Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1/3 cup onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup mushrooms, chopped
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock/broth
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 2 large chicken breasts, cubed and cooked
  • 2-3 pickled cherry peppers, chopped (should make about 1/4 cup)
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon of salt (or to taste)
  • black pepper to taste

Directions:
  1. If you haven't bought pre-cooked chicken, cook the chicken first, chop it into cubes and set aside. If you are a genuine noob to cooking and need to be told how to cook chicken (no judgements here) try soaking the thawed chicken in very salty water for about an hour before you grill/saute it. This will help keep it moist and tender.
  2. Melt your butter in a large skillet, add the bell pepper and onion and saute for about 4 minutes. Add the mushrooms and continue "the sizzle" for an additional 2-3 minutes (the mushroom might soak up the butter a little, no worries).
  3. Add the flour and mix well. While the pan is still hot, add the milk and chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a boil while stirring frequently, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the cooked chicken, cherry peppers, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper and mix well. When the Chicken a la King has reduced to a good consistency, you're DONE!
