FOR THE SAUCE:
- 2 Tablespoons Butter
- 2 Tablespoons All-Purpose Flour
- 1/2 cup Chicken Broth
- 1/2 cup Whole Milk
- 2 Tablespoons Dijon Mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon Kosher Salt PLUS
- 1/8 teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 1/8 teaspoon Ground White or Black Pepper
- Chopped Fresh Chives for Garnish (Optional)
Instructions
- Over medium heat, melt the butter in a small saute or sauce pan.
- Whisk in flour and cook for about 1 minute.
- Reduce the heat to low, and gradually whisk in the milk. The mixture will become very thick.
- Continue cooking over low heat and slowly whisk in the broth.
- Once the mixture is combined and smooth, raise the heat source to medium-low and bring up to a low boil.
- As soon as the first signs of bubbles appear, reduce the heat back down to low and simmer the sauce for 3 minutes, while whisking.
- Whisk in the mustard, salt and pepper and simmer just until heated through, about 1 minute.
- If the sauce becomes too thick, you can add a tablespoon of broth one tablespoon at a time in order to thin until desired thickness is acquired.
Notes
