How long have we enjoyed Chicken á la King?

Chicken á la King, a dish of diced chicken in a cream and sherry sauce, was originally chicken á la Keene, and only later was corrupted to suggest a royal provenance.

Keene and said its chef had created the dish to memorialize his 1881 Grand Prix victory.
