Ingredients

  • ¼ cup (½ stick / 57 g) unsalted butter
  • 1 large carrot, peeled, diced (about 1 cup)
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced (about ½ cup)
  • 2 ribs celery, diced (about 1 cup)
  • 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups turkey stock, or chicken stock
  • 1 cup (245 g) whole milk

  • parsley chopped for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • In 12-inch, oven-safe skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.
