Notes: This is great on a cool fall or winter night. It's a one dish meal or serve with a salad.
*Frozen mirepoix mix was available at our Smiths/Kroger but we haven't seen it lately. Google it to make your own. A simple recipe is 1 medium onion, two celery ribs and 2 carrots all chopped medium dice. (Be aware that if you substitute a bag of regular frozen vegetables there are often lima beans, corn, and green beans in the mix. That seems more appropriate for chicken-a-la-king.)
