Chicken ala King Recipe

INGREDIENTS:

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons butter

2 cups mushrooms, sliced

1 medium onion, chopped, about 1 cup

2 large carrots, cut into matchsticks, about 1 ½ cups

1 ½ cups milk

1 ½ chicken stock

¼ cup flour

½ to 1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon pepper

6 cups cooked and shredded chicken

1 cup peas, frozen

Wide egg noodles, rice, or toast points for serving

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped


INSTRUCTIONS:

1. In a large pot over medium high heat, add the butter and olive oil. When the butter has

melted, add onion, mushrooms, and carrots. Saute for about 8-10 minutes or until the

vegetables are just beginning to brown.

constantly, and bring to a boil. Continue cooking 3-4 minutes or until the sauce is slightly

thickened and coats the back of a spoon. Add pepper, salt and allspice. Stir in the peas,

chicken, and parsley. Continue cooking until heated through, about 1-2 minutes.
