Thank you Kittencal for another "Great Tasting Recipe" that is "Easy to Do", for the leftover cooked chicken that I often have. I didn't have the cooked chicken this time but had everything else. Made with 6 Chicken Tenders that I seasoned and quickly cooked in 1/2 Cup White Wine and 1 Cup Chicken Broth. I did add 2 Tbl minced onion when I cooked the mushrooms & garlic. Other than that, I followed your recipe. Used 3 Tbl flour because I used the broth from cooking the Tenders. The sause, after adding the cream, was perfect. I used my garden peas insted of corn. It does serve 4 for Lunch or 2 for Supper with a salad. I put it on 4 slices of wheat toast and sprinkled some chopped garden parsley on top. It was "awesome" a keeper and a new favorite .

Delicious! This tastes very similar to something my German mother would make called "Huehner Frickasee". I loved that it had so much flavor! I don't use bouillon cubes (msg sensitivity) so I boiled the chicken in chicken stock and then used the "juices" in the pot for the chicken stock in the recipe. I also added two bay leaves for flavor and it turned out wonderfully without the cube. Also I used canned asparagus instead of pimento simply because I like asparagus and I had it one hand and I think it went really well with this recipe. Thank you for posting this- you always have incredibly delicious recipes :)
