Chicken A La King Travel Back To the 70's | Chef Jean-Pierre
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Hello There Friends! Chicken a la King is a timeless classic that dates back to the 1970s, known for its creamy, flavorful sauce and tender chicken pieces. Paired with a puff pastry vol-au-vent, this dish is both a culinary journey back in time and a satisfying meal. The vol-au-vent, a light and flaky pastry, complements the rich filling of the Chicken a la King perfectly. This recipe is a nod to traditional cooking, bringing both comfort and a touch of elegance to your table. Let me know what you think in the comments below!

Hi Chef, love your entertaining and very instructional videos. They have improved my cooking. I bought a couple of Woll skillets, after watching your videos about a year ago. I like cooking with them. Unfortunately, one of mine developed tiny bubble holes in the coating. It was still under warranty but Woll wouldn’t honor it because I bought it off of Amazon. Amazon wouldn’t honor the warranty because it was past their 30 day return limit. I probably should have purchased it from your website?? Other than that, they are great pans. 😊

My mother used to get Chicken A La King in a boiling bag and she served it over Minute Rice! It was easy for her to make and tasty for us to eat!
Butter is Chef Jean-Pierre‘s Emotional Support Animal, and I totally love and identify with that! Thanks for all that you do Chef!
Hello CJP: LOVE this video. Chicken A La King is one of the classics that are soooo under appreciated. I must be a lot older than you, I'm 75, because my mom made this in the 60's along with Tuna A La King. She cooked in a diner and those 2 meals were diner staples here in NE Pa. We served it over English muffins, like Eggs Benedict, or over egg noodles. I reiterate your comment. I used to tell my students, " When you cease to learn, you CEASE to live! " I learn something new every day. Thank you for your entertaining and informative videos. I get my notifications for every video and I can never wait for the next one.:~)))) God bless: Chef David

Thank you Chef! You’re so right the day you quit learning you quit living! It is message like yours that make it all worthwhile. God bless you! 🙏😊
I’m a 70’s kid!!! You’ve taught me so much Chef! I made your Stroganoff with venison last night and the crowd went wild
Is anyone else binge watching chef JP? I have a lot of depression and anxiety but Jean-Pierre is one of the few content creators that can always bring a smile to my face. ❤

Indeed so, a few times for myself when the world is crashing down on me I’ll resort to my favorite chef, he makes me laugh, as well as teaching me at the end of his videos. I forgot what I was thinking about then I went to the store to buy some butter.

Hi LT, Yes, I am binge watching too! My car was stolen 7 days ago and I need the distraction right now.
Brings back memories of my Mom making this dish, so classic and easy. Mom used to serve it on toast (puff pastry was to fancy for the us six kids). Time to make again. Thanks Chef, you're the man!

I grew up cooking with my grandma and mom, but it wasn’t until I found Chef JP in my 20s (while I was in college) that I discovered a true passion. He’s better than culinary school!
My mother use to make this for us with mashed potatoes I thank you for this recipe. Brings me back to the good days. Love land-o-lakes butter!
Absolutely nothing wrong with the 70's. After watching this, I think I need to take a food time machine back there myself. The music wasn't bad either.
Chef JP, you triggered some wonderful memories for me as you make Chicken a la King. I love your version and serving with puff pastry, wow. So elegant. I can't wait to try this version. We always made Chicken a la King in the 70's and we felt so special making it! Thank you for providing the recipe. You are the best! 🤗🤗🥰🥰😋😋

Please, please, please make a video of Chef sharing with us stories from the 70s 😃

Ahhhh Chef! The '70s were awesome!!!!
Again you did it Chef, last time I had this was when my grandmother (a saint) made it when I still lived in Brasil and that was over 30yrs ago. Her recipe notebook is an absolute treasure. Thank you once again Chef and Jack.
My Monday just got 100x better ❤

HELLO!!! JEAN PIERRE THE KING OF ALL CHEFS!!! WOOOO!!!!
Holy macaroni! Made this tonight, and my goodness, this is one of the most amazing and simple recipes! Straight into my recipe book, thank you so much!
I love chicken a la King and you make it look so easy. Chicken a la King was so popular in the 70s that the US military even included it in their MREs (meals ready to eat) and was one of my favorite packages to get.
Thanks so much Chef! I have always wanted to try it! Keep bringing us back to the 70s! Looks like they were some yummy years!
Oh my goodness, that certainly DOES take me back to the 70s!!!! What fun we had! 🎉 I need to go to the store and get some puff pastry doe!! I'll be making this tonight! Thank you my dear brother! 💜
This is one of the reasons why I love your channel, you teach the classics that 22 year old babies like me would not know otherwise. The good thing is, my girlfriend also does not know them, so she thinks they are super impressive, when I do them. Merci! I hope you had wonderful holidays :)
I’ve been out of work for a couple of months due to shoulder surgery. I discovered your channel and have made several delicious meals. However, I’ve gained 15 pounds in this time. But I’ve enjoyed every recipe I’ve tried.
I am loving all your 70s recipes!!! Lobster thermador et all! Please, keep them coming!
I love talking kitchen brands. All my pots and pans are Made in the USA, mostly from All-Clad and Lodge. Most of my stuff is at least 10-15 years old. I have 2 Lodge 12" skillets and a 15qt Le Creuset that are over 60 years old that I got from my grandmother. The cast iron cooks better than all my other kitchen tools.
We love you, Chef JP! I was a child in the 70s and it was, indeed, a fun time. Not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but super fun! Love to you and to Jack!
You are great, Chef! Keep the delicious recipes and techniques coming. More butter and onions! How about a good pasta dish? Penne vodka (with seafood)?
Thank you for taking me back to the 70s ... I remember chicken pot pie at the restaurant...
I couldn't smell it, I couldn't taste it, but just seeing it definitely took me back to my childhood. Never this fancy, but with 8 in our household this type of dish was easy for my mom to feed us all. Backing soda biscuits or rice was the norm in our house.
This brings back memories. I went to a boarding school in 70s. Every Wednesday lunch was chicken a la king day. Definitely not as well presented as this chef. But it was my favourite lunch 👌
Love when he says a child could do this. He makes it so simple. Chef Jean is the real deal. Thank you chef!!!
I love these vintage recipes! Keep 'em coming! Please
I loved, loved, loved Chicken a la King as a kid. The version my family had was the canned version and was served over toast. I'm so happy to learn from Chef how to make it from scratch at home. Also, so happy too that Chef says let the kids in the kitchen and have them stir a roux. My grandmother did that. Keep stirring, she said. It brings back so many good memories of my grandmother teaching me how to cook. Thank you, Chef!
I would love to see more recipes of what you cooked in the 70's, please!! This looks so delicious! Thank you for sharing! Youre such a joy to watch, so much energy and uplifting!
A classic I remember cooking for lots of functions. Classic for a reason ❤
Chicken Ala King. One of the best rations I ever had as a Marine.
Looking forward to hearing more about the 70's 🙂
9:25 - Chef JP's approach to worrying is awesome! I love the "don't worry". It is so true about non stick pans and how people can be obsessed over using non-metal utensils. Like chill people, just don't scrape the pan with metal.
The 70’s were a wonderful time. This classic dish was definitely part of my world! Thanks for another great video and recipe. God bless.😊
I grew up on this dish in the 50's. As you point out, it can be served over potatoes or rice, but the contrast in texture between the saucy chicken mixture and the puff pastry shell is what makes Chicken A La King special. Mom didn't have time for puff pastry back before it was available in packages like it is these days, so she served it over those crunchy fried Chinese noodles in order to get that wonderful contrast of textures. Try crunchy noodles some time, the kind you find in those cardboard cans in the Asian section of an ordinary grocery store. Thank you for another nice video because now I have an inspiration for some of that frozen turkey breast meat left over from Thanksgiving.
i love Chiicken ala King, Had it at the restaurant. Thanks for this!
I was a kid in the 70's and I LOVED Chicken a la King. Thanks!
I always look for your notifications every time I login here. Then, if I have the supplies, I'll make what you're cooking! If I don't, then I copy the recipe and make it when I do. My family loves that I'm cooking again.... decent meals now! ha ha ha. THANK YOU for giving this old lady such joy! . MERCI!!!
I have followed my Mother’s recipe for all of my adult life. She boiled a whole chicken and pulled the meat, used the stock for the base and added, mushrooms, carrots and peas. Instead of paprika she used yellow curry powder. It takes a couple hours to make. I love the simplicity of this version. Make the rux, add premade stock, cook the sauce first, add sauté the chicken & veg…beautiful. Mom always served with basmati rice, but love the puff pastry….almost a pot pie. Thank you!
Love his joyfulness.
God bless America! God bless Chef Jean-Pierre!❤️A child could do this. 🙂

Man, there are so many dishes out there that I’ve never heard of! Thanks, Chef!!!
My mom used to serve this over toast. I use rice or egg noodles. 70s? I've been enjoying this for 50 years!
Im a 70's kid, but I never had it then. I first learned this and started serving it in 2000. It was hugely popular throughout that decade. Diced chicken, chicken stock veloute, diced mixed bell peppers, sweetcorn, and sometimes a stick of lemongrass. Most commonly served with basmatti rice. It's still one of my favourite dishes.
Taste buds are a time machine! So many memories locked in those buds are released with familiar flavors. Outstanding lesson, as always.
I can't wait to make this for my 13 year old Granddaughter.
Chef you were born to be a CHEF! you make everything look so easy. I loved this video and will try your recipe. I got married in the 70! agree very good years. Bless you with so many new subscribers could be your expertise and your charm. Greetings from Texas.
If you were not a little nuts I wouldn’t be watching all your videos, that’s what we all love about you (besides the recipes being very easy to do). I tried cook a lot of them and they all came out really amazing. I even bought a couple new pans just to step my cooking game up
"Blue Anchor Kirkham" Hi Chef , My first job as a young boy in the 1970s was as a Kitchen Porter(Along with Mark Ormerod "Ommer") at the amazing Al A Carte restaurant "The Blue Anchor" in Greenhalgh , Kirkham ,All the food was cooked on an open grill for all to see. Such amazing food like Scampi al a creme, Steak Diane, Chicken al a creme, Steak au Poivre, Cauliflower cheese , Fresh asparagus.....the list goes on and on but Lets not forget the signature starter " The horderves trolley". If my memory serves me well it was Alex and Carl(remember Carl burning his leg with boiling water) both as commi chefs (Alex was a Big Neil Diamond Fan) , Dave as 2nd chef (Dating Geraldine for two great reasons ), Phil as Head Chef (a top chef producing amazing food with a great sense of humor) I remember Mr&Mrs Monroe as Managers and later Mr Smith and family with side kick timmi... When will someone do a 1970s food cookbook , not just great memories but Great food.
Would love to hear some stories from the 70s!
You bring me joy...everyday. I learn so much from you! 😊
@15:56 hahaha I love Chef when he does his jazz hands, especially talking about the 70's ;-)
I want it to spill over, Chef. That just means there's more goodness on my plate.
😂 I’d love ❤️ to hear those stories from the ‘70’s one day!
Oh Chef JP, I’m an early 80’s baby and this still brings back so many memories of family weddings in London, I also think vol-au-vents are massively underrated, thank you for this ❤
Nice and fast. It looks a little like a variation of my favourite dish: the amazing „BOUCHÉE À LA REINE“ 😁🍽️
Thank you for your FABULOUS recipes! I have my mother’s old recipe for chicken a La king. I have made it but not for awhile. She used pimentos instead of red pepper, she also added green pepper and carrots (because someone in our house, maybe me, doesn’t like peas). This definitely takes me back!
In my family, this is de rigeur for day-after-Thanksgiving -- leftover turkey works quite well.
mmmmmmm...I could really enjoy that. Also, with slight changes it could also be a very lovely chicken pie.
As always another great video. Chef you should do more recipes from the 70's. It brings back a lot of good memories. God Bless you and Jack.

This dish is still one of the most classic but most delicious (and pretty easy) dish. When I'm feeling lazy I serve this on rice, so delicious.
Hello chef my children are now in their early thirties and my son is in his early twenties thank you for this recipe I used to make it for my children they loved it but don't hate me cuz I've looked for this way of making it for many years when they were younger I used to put a can of cream of chicken and now I know how to make it the right way and I'm going to share this with my children so they can make it the right way now too thank you
Excellent! As usual, clear, unpretentious, and entertaining. Bravo, Jean Pierre! And more from the 70's please!
Talk about Deja Vu, this video rocketed me back to the 70's, especially when I saw you putting in the peas. 😂 You make my day with your videos, Chef. God bless you.
Ahh yes I remember Chicken A' La King and SOS. Forgot all about these dishes. Definitely going to make them again.
Let's go back to the 70's !! Congratulations Mx Chef
This classic looks so delicious. Please show us as many classic recipes as you want Chef.

The chocolate mousse comment made me laugh. I am 65, I was in the kitchen from when I could walk, I wanted to be a pastry chef..., but where I grew up there was no jobs. 😢 I still love cooking....., thanks to my mother. 🥰 LOOOVED this recipe. 🥰
Yes we want to hear 70's stories! Even the naughty ones!
1973 here....probably only start remembering from 77 😂👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽
I whisk a few tempered egg yolks into mine before serving. Very good!
Yes the 70s were magical! Thank you chef!
As you suggested polenta sounds wonderful and much easier than a puff pastry
The 70's!! Yes we certainly had a great time..... I think I saw you there too! Lol
I wasn't around in the 1970s, but I was in high school in the 1990s and they would make Chicken A La King every so often. I doubt it was as good as this, but I remember it being one of the dishes I really enjoyed.
We're about the same age and I had some friends that would say, "If you remember the 70s (and the 60s), you really weren't there". Seriously, I've made this a lot. I just bought a Sam's Club 4 lb. rotisserie chicken yesterday and have about 1 1/2 lbs of meat left. I use leftover chicken for this type of dish all the time. I haven't done the puff pastry thing yet, but I will now.
Chef Jean Pierre, I have a good time when I'm watching your episodes and totally agree with you 'party food is like good food but SMALLER '😊
Ahhh, Chef Jean-Pierre…you are the King! I have such fun watching and cooking with you! I’m a 74 yr old man and I’m becoming a home schooled chef. Haha! Thank you!
My mother used to make a version of this dish. A great memory of great tasting food. Thank you
My gramma would serve this to me every weekend when we would visit...on toast. Yes...she bought it in a can but it was still one of my fav' meals and i still love to make my own.
My maman always made Turkey à la King after Christmas with leftover Turkey, with frozen peas and carrots.. what a memory that is for me. She also made tourtière, québécois style!! Joyeuse Fêtes Chef. 🎄♥️ Et Merci. X

Thank you Chef Pierre for the inspiration and classic dish. You are a joy to watch and learn from.
So awesome! I use to eat the frozen Swanson version when I was a kid. They came in a see thru bag and you would boil it in a pan and it was so good even frozen. Gonna make this asap. Thanks chef.
nothing wrong with bringing back the beauty of the past
In the 1970s, I used to eat Stouffer's chicken ala king over toast, this looks awesome, thanks Chef!
My parents used to make this and lobster newburg for dinner parties in the 50s ! Dad was an Army Lt. Col .!😊
I love this it brings back many memories from the 70s as a 20 something year old! Thank you!
