Instructions
  1. 1

    Build the creamy base

    Chop 1 small onion. In a large saucepan, saute the onion in the butter over medium heat until tender. Stir in the flour, salt and pepper until blended. Gradually stir in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Boil and stir for 2 minutes, until thickened and bubbly.

    Fold in the filling

    Stir in the half-and-half, cooked shredded or cubed chicken, cooked wild rice, drained sliced mushrooms, drained diced pimientos and minced parsley. Heat through.

  2. 3
