Chicken -AL-a-King

Credit my little brother for this recipe, modified from a Mom recipe!

Here is a nice crock pot recipe for you. This is one of my household favorites. And I make it! Got the recipe from mom.

You can clean this up for the way you write. I just blurted things out. You're a cook, you understand! I call it "Chicken -AL-a-King". Mom I think, did the chicken the same, then made dumplings, and called it "chicken & dumplings" You can call it Chicken - Al & Karl if you like! Whatever!

Ingredients:

2 or 3 Whole chicken breasts
1 - Large can of Veg-All™ OR 1) 2#bag of frozen mixed veggies
2 Cups corn starch
Few - whole peppercorns
3 Cans of Swanson™ Chicken Broth

Directions:

In a crock pot, pour in the chicken broth, then place in the chicken breasts, the veggies, and add water as needed to cover the chicken. Simmer on low for 6 to 8 hours. OR on high for 3 - 4 hours.

Remove chicken breasts from crock pot, then using 2 forks, shred the breasts and then return them to the crock pot.

Thicken the gravy using the corn starch. Begin with a 1/2 cup, mix with an equal amount of cold water, stir till you make a paste, slowly add to stock in pot, stirring constantly to avoid clumping. Continue stirring until it returns o a bubble, check thickness. If you prefer a thicker stew gravy, repeat this process until you have reached the desired thickness.

Serve it up any way you wish!

EAT IT!!!

After Thoughts:

Goes great served over some Pillsbury™ Grands Buttermilk biscuits!

I am sure it would be awesome served over some cornmeal pancakes!! (Karl)

This meal will stick to your ribs, and makes great leftovers! Is a good meal by itself, although the biscuit helps.
