2 cups nonfat milk or 2 cups 1% low-fat milk |
1 cup fat-free chicken broth |
4 tablespoons flour (for a thinner sauce use 3 tablespoons) |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste) |
salt |
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese (can use more) |
Directions:
1. In a small skillet heat oil over medium heat; add in onion and saute for about 10 minutes or until lightly browned; add in the garlic and chili flakes the last 2 minutes of cooking (the onions must be lightly browned!).
