A quick confession, I was feeling lazy to chop have to chop the veggies so I got a frozen pack of green peas, carrots and corn for this one --- do not do that! Anyway, when I first tasted chicken ala king, it was one New Year's Eve celebration in my grandparents' house. My mom cooked the chicken sauce filling and she ordered puff pastries from a bakery and she filled the pastries before putting them in the oven --- it was amazing.
I can't remember if I've mentioned this to you before, I think I have, I am a bread person and I was a bread person when I was young and am still one today. I love chicken ala king because it is tasty and quite easy to do. You just put the ingredients in and then you have it. You do not even have to toast or bake the bread because for this particular dish, I didn't. I got buns, cut a hole in the middle and poured the sauce quite generously it dripped on my hand with every bite.
Of course you can also have this with rice, but it's better with bread --- puff pastry if you can --- trust me!
