Sometimes you just don't know what your missing until you try it. If you buy canned cream of chicken, please STOP! Besides being filled with really bad(really bad) things, it just doesn't compare to homemade cream of chicken.
Where have you been all my life?! I know I used to stock those cans in my pantry because our fav farm meal, Homemade Chicken Pot Pie, calls for it. As I journeyed into saving money , eating clean and balanced and cooking from stratch I realized that not only does it take 5 minutes to make, but it tastes INCREDIBLE. I'll never go back. So give it a try! I promise it won't disappoint. Enjoy!!

1 3/4 cup chicken stock
3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup flour or arrowroot
Sea salt and pepper to taste
1 tsp of thyme OR 1/4 tsp celery seed(optional)
Heat chicken stock in a sauce pan. Mix the milk and flour together in a small bowl. Stir until there are no lumps. Slowly whisk in the milk/flour mixture into the warm chicken stock and stir until consistent(no lumps) Add seasonings and cook over medium heat until thick. You can add more milk if it gets to thick or add more flour/milk mixture of you want it thicker!
I told you! Easy! And simply, delicious!
Simply, Jen
