Categories     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup(s) butter or margarine
1 small onion, chopped
1 cup(s) milk
1/2 cup(s) heavy cream
1 1/4 cup(s) chicken broth
1 cup(s) frozen peas and carrots, cooked per package directions
1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
1/4 teaspoon(s) pepper
1/2 cup(s) all purpose flour
2 cup(s) cubed cooked chicken

Steps:

  • In a large pan or deep 12 inch skillet, melt the butter over medium high heat. Add onion and stir until onion is done.
  • Add flour, salt, and pepper and stir until mixture is bubbly, then remove from heat.
  • Add milk, cream, and chicken broth. Return to heat, still medium high, and stir constantly until mixture comes to a boil. Boil and stir for one minute.
  • Add cooked chicken and cooked peas and carrots. Sometimes I add a little parsley for color. You can add more salt and pepper after for taste to your liking.
  • *NOTE* I like to use milk and cream in this recipe as the cream gives it a more rich flavor. You can use just milk, or milk and half and half if you'd prefer.
