1.5 pounds of chicken (cubed)
1 Tbs olive oil
2 Tbs butter
2 carrots (or half package of frozen carrots)
1 onion (diced)

In skillet drizzle olive oil, heat. Add chicken and poultry seasoning. Cook chicken thoroughly. Add onion, celery, carrots, peas, and bay leaf. Add small amount of water (approx. 1/3 cup). Cover and simmer for 5 min.

In large stock pot, add chicken broth. Bring to low boil. Mix flour and water as directed for gravy recipes. Add slowly to the chicken broth. As thickens, add butter and milk. If too thin, add more flour and water mix. Don't worry if it is too thick, you still need to add chicken and veggie mix. Add the chicken and veggies. Heat approximately 10-15 min on medium-low.

Serve with mashed potatoes and biscuits. Cook biscuits according to package instructions.
