  • Step 2
    In a large skillet or Dutch oven add the butter till melted and add the flour and keep stiring till all the flour is coated and cooks about 4-5 minutes on medium add chicken broth and the soup and the half and half till all is blended together like gravy.(If this gets to thick add a little water.Add salt and pepper.
