  • 1 Green Pepper diced
  • 225 g Mushrooms sliced
  • 3 tbsp All-purpose Flower
  • 1.75 cups Chicken Broth (soup) (±415ml)
  • 1 cup Full Cream Milk (±250ml) or half milk & half cream for a richer, creamier flavour
  • 2 cups Cooked Chicken (±300g) sliced, diced, or shredded
  • 1 cup Frozen Peas (±140g) optional
  • 1 Red Pepper diced (pimentos are the traditional ingredient if you can get it—1 jar)

  • Salt and Pepper to taste

  3. Slowly pour in chicken broth and milk while stirring. Cook for 3–5 minutes, until thick and creamy.
