The fried chicken came with mac and cheese, I think. I don't remember there being spaghetti. Just lasagna.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm pretty sure Sara identified the chicken ala king correctly, though -- basically chicken pot pie without the pie. Where she went from there is a mystery, but it's not because she didn't know what she was looking at.

Because books.

Sort of. The sauce is creamier, and usually includes sherry. Plus mushrooms and green peppers. It's another way to use leftover chicken, essentially, and it is YUM.

We serve it over English muffins, but you could serve it over rice (I guess) or noodles.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

ooh, AmyLiz's version actually sounds good! most versions of it I'm familiar with are served to large groups and are not good.

Chicken ala King can be very good, if made properly. If you're getting it at say, a hospital cafeteria or some such? Not so much.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

That does sound seriously tasty. I'm still resolute in my non-meat-eating ways, but the thought of any savory foodstuff in a cream sauce involving sherry, plus mushrooms and green peppers, is playing havoc with that resolve.

Art Crawl!!!

I bet you could do some sort of non-meat variation.

You could probably up the mushroom quotient and get a pretty good veggie equivalent.
