chicken ala king
I love Chicken ala king, but with its white sauce and biscuits it can be an unfriendly meal for those who are gluten intolerant.  I made it a goal to come up with a gluten free version that would taste as good as mom used to make.  Thankfully, we had recently come up with a recipe for baking powder biscuits, so now all I needed to do was come up with a tasty, gluten free white sauce.  I took a typical white sauce and just replaced the flour with corn starch.  The result was a very tasty sauce that I even ate cold the next day.

2 TBSP butter
1 can Mushroom pieces ( use fresh if you have any on hand)
Reserved liquid from mushrooms
1/2 Red pepper, diced
2 TBSP Cornstarch
2C.  Milk
1/2 tsp. Basil
1/2 tsp Thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
2 C. Chicken, cooked and cubed
1/2 C. Peas, frozen
2 egg yolks.
Parmesan cheese
Baking powder biscuits


In a medium sauce pan, saute, over medium heat, mushrooms and peppers in butter.  Stir in cornstarch and cook for 1 minutes.  Slowly add the reserved mushroom liquid and milk.  Add chicken and spices.  Bring to a boil and simmer until slightly thickened.  Add peas and egg.  Cook until peas are tender.  Serve over baking powder biscuits.  Garnish with Parmesean cheese.
