This is really great over wheat pasta or brown rice. I always double the recipe so I've shown that here. It fits nicely in my large frying pan and then we can eat it for several meals. Makes (10) 100 g servings

Ingredients

    4 T. butter
    2 c. onion, chopped (2 medium)
    4 t. flour
    2.5 c. chicken stock
    2 (12.5 oz) cans Kirkland chicken breast
    1 pint fat-free sour cream (Kroger or Western Family)
    5/8 cup (2 oz or 50 grams) flaked/sliced/slivered raw almonds, toasted
    salt and freshly ground pepper

Tips

This is nice when you're not sure what time you'll actually sit down to dinner, since it can simmer for quite a while while you wait for the family to assemble. You can keep the rice warm and then you're ready when they are! We usually have a robust salad with it. When reheating, you can add water or milk to thin it if necessary.


Directions

1) Melt the butter in a frying pan and cook the onion for about 5 minutes until soft.
2) Stir in the flour and cook 1-2 minutes. Gradually stir in the stock.
3) Add the chicken and sour cream, bring to a boil stirring, and then simmer for 5-10 minutes.
4) Stir in the almonds and season to taste.
5) If the sauce isn't thick enough I add a bit of corn starch so it stays on the pasta or rice.
