Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter, unsalted
- 3 tablespoons flour, all-purpose
- 2 tablespoons onion finely diced
- 1 1/4 cups white mushrooms diced
- 1/2 cup chicken broth, low-sodium
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, ground
Instructions
- Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk in flour. Continue whisking until the mixture is smooth and bubbly, making a roux.
- Add the diced onion and mushrooms to the pot. Continue to cook for a couple more minutes until softened.
- Slowly add in chicken broth and milk, whisking continuously. Whisk until combined. It might look chunky at first, but keep whisking! It will come together. Bring to a gentle boil and simmer for 5-10 minutes, until thickened. The mixture will continue to thicken as it cools. Salt and pepper to taste.
