Celestial Chicken Recipe? PLEASE???`?

Question

I'm looking for a recipe for something called Celestial Chicken. Did a search and found the dish, but not the recipe. It's chicken that is lightly floured and fried and served over a bed of rice with some kind of white sauce. Can anyone help? This was my fiancee's childhood favorite recipe and I'd love to make it for him!

G'day Sierraskyesmom,

It looks like Marni B has given you a pretty good answer.

There seems to be a number of recipes for this dish if a post to rec.food.recipes is any guide. Perhaps you have a cookoff with your fiance being the judge over successive weeks.

There is recipe A for your consideration.

4 to 5 chicken breasts,
deboned and cubed
1 cup self-rising flour
1/2 cup milk
1 egg
sesame seeds
cooking oil

Make batter with flour, egg and milk. Dip chicken in
batter, then sprinkle with sesame seeds. Deep fry in hot
cooking oil until golden brown. Serve with a mustard sauce made of mustard and ketchup

Or there is recipe b for your delectation.

10 to 12 chicken breasts,
deboned
2 cans cream of mushroom soup
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 cup cooking sherry

Place in baking dish. Mix 2 cans cream of mushroom

Or there is recipe c for consideration.

(Serves 4)

1 frying chicken, cut into
serving pieces

Cover with sauce made by combining the remaining ingredients.
Bake uncovered in a moderate 350 degrees oven for 60 minutes or until done. May be cooked in frying pan on top of stove over medium heat, covered, until tender. Uncover last 20 minutes.
Note: Leftover sauce is good over ham.
