Chicken Gravy

I wanted biscuits and gravy one night but was fresh out of sausage. I thought this was a pretty good substitute, though. If you want a good biscuit recipe, I liked #77417. :D

• Ready In: 20 mins
• Serves: 4-6

Ingredients

• 2  tablespoons butter or 2  tablespoons margarine
• 2  tablespoons flour
• 2  cups milk
• 1⁄2-1  cup chicken meat, cooked and chopped (depending on how meaty you like your gravy)
•  salt
•  pepper

Directions

1. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
2. Stir in flour and mix thoroughly.
3. Add milk a little at a time. To avoid lumps, whisk the milk in or just stir really thoroughly after each addition of milk.
4. Keep stirring until sauce thickens. (Cook until it's the consistency you like. If it gets too thick, you can just add more milk.).
5. Stir in chicken.
6. Add salt and pepper to taste. (And don't be afraid of the pepper. The gravy didn't taste right until I'd added quite a lot -- ).
