Classic Chicken à la King Recipe

  1. Sauté the Vegetables
  • Melt the butter over medium-high heat in a large pot or Dutch oven.
  • Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing them to brown.
  • Add the chopped onion and diced green bell pepper. Cook until the vegetables are softened and the mushrooms are golden brown.
  1. Prepare the Sauce Base
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the minced garlic and dry mustard to the pot, stirring for about 30 seconds.
  • Sprinkle in the flour, stirring continuously to combine. Cook and stir for about 2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
  • Gradually pour in the chicken broth while stirring to avoid lumps. Continue to cook and stir until the mixture begins to thicken, about 5 minutes.
  1. Combine Ingredients
  • Reduce the heat to low and stir in the half-and-half. Add the frozen peas, well-drained pimentos, and cooked chicken.
  • Stir until everything is heated through and the peas are tender. If the mixture becomes too thick, gradually add one-quarter cup of chicken broth at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
  1. Serve
  • Serve the Chicken à la King over rice, noodles, toast, biscuits, or puff pastry shells. Enjoy this hearty meal hot for the best experience.
