CREAMY CHICKEN CURRY MUSHROOM CASSEROLE







CREAMY CHICKEN CURRY MUSHROOM CASSEROLE
An easy, tasty supper casserole. Start with a bought roast chicken and what could be simpler?  I have made this recipe  probably a dozens times, just because it is so easy and quick to make, and tastes good too. You can serve it with a salad,  with cauli mash or with cauli-rice or  mix of cauli-rice and a little wild rice or cooked quinoa  for a more substantial "rice."  This recipe comes from South Africa.  It has a tiny amount of curry powder in it...for flavor mostly (no heat, unless you want it).  

1 roasted chicken
12 oz fresh mushrooms (340 g)
1 tbsp butter (15 mL)
Curry Sauce:
1 cup whipping cream (250 mL)
6 tbsp sugar-free ketchup (90 mL)
1/4 cup olive oil (50 mL)
2 tbsp white vinegar (25 mL)
1 tsp mild curry powder (5 mL)
1 tsp dry mustard (5 mL)
Sweetener equal to 1 tsp sugar (5 mL)
1/2 tsp salt (2 mL)
1/8 tsp black pepper (0.5 mL)
Topping:
1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted (50 mL)
1 tbsp butter (15 mL)
