Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup

Ingredients:

1 1/2 c. chicken broth

1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/8 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 teaspoon salt (more or less; taste to test)

1/4 teaspoon parsley

dash of paprika

1 1/2 cups milk, divided - can use fat free half and half

3/4 cup flour

Preparation:

1. In medium-sized saucepan, bring chicken broth, seasonings, and 1/2 c. of the milk to a boil.

2. In a bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 cup of milk and flour. Alternately, put the milk and flour in a covered, tightly-lidded container or old mayo jar and shake until combined.

3. Add flour and milk mixture to the boiling mixture. Continue whisking briskly until mixture boils and thickens. Cook until desired consistency is reached, keeping in mind that it will continue to thicken as it stands.

Makes the equivalent of 2 cans of condensed cream of chicken soup.
