Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 1 cup Milk (or milk alternative)
- 0.25 cup Cooked, shredded chicken (optional for a chunkier texture)
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Onion powder
Instructions
Melt the unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Once the butter is melted, whisk in the gluten-free all-purpose flour. Whisk continuously to form a smooth paste.
Gradually pour the chicken broth into the saucepan while whisking to avoid lumps.
Slowly add the milk while continuing to whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Cook the mixture on medium heat, stirring frequently, until it begins to thicken (about 5-7 minutes).
Once the mixture reaches the desired thick consistency, stir in the shredded chicken (if using), salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool slightly. Use immediately in your recipe or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
