Quick Chicken a la King

From Southern Living Easy Weeknight Favorites

Prep: 4 minutes
Cook: 10 minutes
"Here's an easy entree for two. Use any kind of bread you have on hand for toast."

This recipe serves 2, but is easily doubled. In fact, I usually double so I can have some leftover for lunch the next day.

1 cup chopped cooked chicken
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup English peas (I personally use the young small peas in the LeSueur "silver" can.)
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 can cream of chicken soup, undiluted
1 4-ounce can sliced mushrooms
1 2-ounce jar diced pimentos, drained
4 slices whole wheat or other bread, toasted

Combine first 8 ingredients in a large saucepan; cook over low heat 10 minutes, stirring often. Cut each slice of toast in half, if desired. Spoon chicken mixture over toast on two plates. Sprinkle with paprika. Yield: 2 servings.
