Ingredients

3 tablespoons butter

3 tablespoons white all purpose flour

2 cups chicken broth (divided, keep 1/2 cup to the side to thin out the sauce to your liking - so you may not use the whole 2 cups)

Directions

Heat a heavy saucepan on medium heat. Add butter and melt it, but don't let it brown.

Take off heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
