Chicken A La King 1

Total Time: 3 hrs 40 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 3 hrs 30 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 2
  • 2 (10 3/4 ounce) cans condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 dash cayenne pepper
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cubed
  • 1 celery rib, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped green pepper
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1 (10 ounce) package frozen peas, thawed
  • 2 tablespoons diced pimentos, drained
  • hot cooked rice

Recipe

  • 1 in a 3-qt. slow cooker, combine soup, flour, pepper and cayenne until smooth. stir in chicken, celery, green pepper and onion. cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or until meat juices run clear. stir in peas and pimientos. cook 30 minutes longer or until heated through. serve with rice.
  • 2 my note: i have made this several times. it is much better if you use 2 cans of cream of chicken soup so there is more sauce for over the rice. i thicken it a bit at the end with some cornstarch until it's the consistency i like. you don't want it too thick though, because the rice will soak up the tasty sauce. i add garlic and a couple diced carrots and some extra seasoning like emeril's essence. i add fresh parsley at the end too. this really is a good recipe. i actually liked it better the 2nd day after it had thickened some.
  • 3 this is really good. i made some changes to reduce the fat/calories a bit. i use the 98%ff cream of chicken and a little less chicken with more veggies. i use frozen peas and carrots and add about a teaspoons of garlic powder. i love slow cooker meals and this one turns out great every time. this is a good, old-fashioned recipe for everyone's recipe file, in my opinion.
