Chicken A La King
We really enjoyed this Janet:) An easy tasty recipe that comes together in no time at all!This would be an excellent easy dish for entertaining too! I didn't use two envelopes of chicken bouillon powder. I only used one to cut back on the salt and there was still a nice amount of salty chicken flavour in the sauce. One thing I would do differently and it is indeed no fault to the recipe at all! I think I would prefer to make my own puff pastry shells out of frozen puff pastry. The ones I bought were from the bakery in my local grocery store. Even though they were light and flaky, they had an odd greasy taste to me, lacking that good old buttery flavour. Maybe Pepperidge Farm makes a much better one? I will try that first next time and trust me there definitely will be a next time for me making this:)
Thanks again Janet for this lovely post:)

What a great looking picture! I've never seen anything like that. It looks like a deconstructed chicken pot pie! :-)

Joce, I love your picture. Thanks so much for adding it to my recipe page. It's way nicer than the one I took! :) Glad you enjoyed it, and yes...it's a comfort food meal but served in the puff pastry it is certainly 'guest worthy'. :)
I've never made my own puff pastry shells out of frozen puff pastry. Do you just cut rounds out of it with a cookie cutter I guess?
Thanks for the nice review! :)

Janet, I haven't made my own that way yet either! I figure you could do it with a cookie or biscuit cutter too. Then take a smaller cutter to make that indentation in the top of it. Then possibly the little top can pop out too? I am thinking that you might need the pastry thickness for this before cutting it to be at least and inch or more to get the right height after it is baked? I will have to research it a bit more before I do and I will keep you posted on what I am going to do.
Thanks so much everyone:) It was very fun to make!
