    Looks delicious, but there aint no replacement for pimentos…yankee boy. Leaving out the mushrooms is forgivable–not really–but leaving out the pimentos is not. Sauteed red peppers aint pimentos. And I don't care what side of the Mason Dixie Line your momma comes from, chicken ala king is always served on white toast! Love you daddy jack, don't think I don't!!

    Wow – this brings back memories of my Mom making it. I was also born in the 50's. I remember she used mushrooms, carrots (teeny tiny dice), green peppers and pimentos. She also served it on toast points. I don't remember her using egg yolks or sherry, but it's a great idea. I'm going to try it using my Mom's veggie mix, and also the egg yolks and sherry!

    instead of flour add cream of mushroom and instead of bread get corn tortillas and cut them up to make corn chips, pour the chicken n stuff over the chips and add shredded cheese, very delicious down here in texas

    p.s. I will be cooking this for my two sons this week, on toast, exactly like you have shown (I'll even include a little sherry to keep it authentic). So thanks to your mom, her teachings live on in you and now are also passed over here, to the UK and on and on. Thanks Chef!

    hey Jack, awesome channel, new subscriber. What do you think about European style knives vs Japanese style for the kitchen? Trying to decide on a good knife.
