Step-by-step guide to making this recipe
1

Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper and garlic powder and then cube them into bite-size pieces.

2

Sauté the chicken cubes, onion, mushrooms, and pimentos in the olive oil in a skillet.

3

In a saucepan, melt the butter, stir in the flour and cook over medium heat for about a minute.

4

Add the chicken broth and stir till thickened.

5

Add the sauce to the chicken and vegetable mixture; stir together and cook a few more minutes.

6

Serve over biscuits, toast or toasted English muffins.

Notes
  • You can add 1–2 cloves of finely diced garlic to the chicken and vegetable mixture; add it last, when the chicken is almost done, because garlic burns quickly.
  • You can serve over rice or pasta instead of biscuits, toast or English muffins.
