Chicken à la King
Chicken à la King is a retro American comfort dish of tender diced chicken and browned mushrooms folded into a silky sherry-spiked cream sauce flecked with sweet pimientos and peas. An egg-yolk-and-cream liaison gives the sauce its glossy, spoon-coating richness without turning gluey, and finishing off the heat keeps it velvety. Ladled over crisp toast points, it tastes like an old-school diner special made properly at home.
