Prep Time: 15 minutes minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes minutes
- 1 celery stalk, finely diced
- 1 carrot, finely diced
- ½ onion, finely diced
- 2 Tbsp. butter
- 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary, or 1 tsp. dried rosemary
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme, or 1 tsp. dried thyme
- 2 Tbsp. flour
- 1 cup milk, warmed
- 1 cup chicken stock, warmed
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. black pepper
- 2 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded
- ½ cup frozen peas, or any other vegetable
Heat the skillet over medium heat and add butter to the pan.
Once the butter begins to sizzle, add the carrots, celery, and onion with a pinch of salt. Sauté the vegetables until they begin to soften, about 5 to 10 minutes.
Add the garlic, thyme, and rosemary to the vegetables and sauté for about a minute until they aromas start to bloom.
Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and combine well so that the vegetables are coated with flour. Allow the flour to toast until it starts to form a golden roux.
Add the hot chicken stock to the roux in batches, whisking the stock into the roux until it is smooth before adding the next batch.
Whisk the hot milk to the pan until the sauce is smooth.
Add the shredded chicken and frozen peas.
Bring the sauce to a boil and reduce to a simmer.
Add salt and pepper and stir.
Allow the sauce to simmer until it thickens into a creamy gravy.
Serve over noodles, biscuits, or in a puff pastry bowl.
