SPEEDY CHICKEN A'LA KING



Speedy Chicken A'la King image

I got this recipe from a cooking class and I helped make it. In my cooking class we served this over top of homemade fluffy biscuits. My family really enjoyed this recipe. We thought it tasted so good and this was so easy to make. In a pinch I've made this recipe with frozen mixed vegetables, water in place of the chicken broth and I've left out the celery and I think it still turns out great.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
  • Choose the Right Celery: Use fresh, crisp celery for the best flavor and texture. Avoid any celery that is wilted or has brown spots.
  • Cut the Celery Properly: Cut the celery into 1-inch pieces on a bias. This will help them cook evenly and give them a nice texture.
  • Don't Overcook the Celery: Celery should be cooked until it is tender-crisp. Overcooking will make it mushy and bland.
  • Use Good Quality Chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are a good choice for this dish. Make sure the chicken is fresh and free of any blemishes.
  • Season the Chicken Well: Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and paprika before cooking. This will help to enhance the flavor of the dish.
  • Use a Good Quality Broth: Use a good quality chicken broth or stock for the best flavor. Avoid using bouillon cubes or canned broth, as they can be too salty and artificial tasting.
  • Don't Boil the Chicken: Bring the broth to a simmer and then add the chicken. Reduce the heat to low and let the chicken simmer gently for 10-12 minutes, or until it is cooked through.
  • Serve Immediately: Serve the celery chicken a la koch immediately over rice or noodles. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives for a pop of color and flavor.
