Categories Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 12

*2 cups of cooked and cubed chicken (or shredded chicken)
*3 tablespoons butter
*½ onion (about ½ cup), finely chopped
*1 1/2 tsp garlic, finely minced
*1 teaspoon salt
*pepper to taste
*¼ cup flour
*2 cups milk
*1 cup chicken broth
*salt and pepper to taste
*2 Tbsp flour, optional
*2 Tbsp water, optional

Steps:

1. In a large sauce pan, saute the onion in the butter until soft and translucent. Add the garlic and cook for about one minute, stirring, until fragrant. 2. Sprinkle the flour over the onions and stir to combine. Cook over medium heat for one minute. 3. Slowly whisk in the milk and chicken broth. Cook, stirring constantly with a whisk, and bring the sauce to a simmer over medium. Add the salt and pepper. 4. Add the chicken and simmering, stirring the sauce frequently, until the sauce has thickened, about 5-8 minutes. 5. At this point if you want the sauce to thicken more, in a small bowl whisk together the 2 Tbsp flour and 2 Tbsp water until smooth, you don't want lumps. It should look like a paste. Drizzle a little of the flour mixture at a time while whisking into to sauce mixture until desired thickness is reached. I like it to be like a thick gravy. 6. Serve the sauce over steamed rice with desired toppings from the list below. Serves 4-6.
