Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound chicken sausage (mild or hot)
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter (divided)
  • 2–1/4 cups mirepoix (diced carrots, celery, and yellow onion)

  • 4 cups chicken stock
  • 6 tablespoons flour
  • 3 cups milk (1%, 2%, or whole)

Instructions

  1. Brown the chicken sausage in a large pot over medium-high heat until fully cooked. Set aside.
