Ingredients:

  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 2 ribs celery chopped
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup unbleached flour
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 1 tablespoon Sriracha HOT Chili Sauce or more if you like it HOT!
  • 1 teaspoon Paula Deen's House Seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon celery seed
  • 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

  • blue cheese crumbles for garnish
Sriracha HOT Chili Sauce
blue cheese crumbles

In a 2 quart sauce pan over medium-high heat, saute onions in the butter.  Add celery and cook about 30 seconds more - you want the celery to remain slightly crunchy.  Add flour to make a roux.

Slowly whisk in broth and bring to a boil.  Keep whisking to create a smooth sauce.

Add Sriracha HOT Chili Sauce, House Seasoning, and celery seed.  Keep whisking!

Add cheese - still whisking till it's melted and then whisk in the cream. Reduce heat to medium-low.

Stir (not whisking anymore) in chicken.  Cover and let cook 5 minutes till heated through.
