Course: Breakfast, Brunch
Cuisine: American
Keyword: breakfast, gravy
Servings: 2
- 2 tablespoon butter (preferably unsalted)
- 2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups milk (whole milk or 2%)
- 1 3 oz package of Dried beef (I prefer Knauss)
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper (black or multi colored)
- Optional: fresh or dried chives, for garnish
Melt butter over medium heat in a medium saucepan. 2. While butter melts, cut dried beef in half lengthwise, and then crosswise into ¼” to ½” strips. 3. Once butter is melted, add beef to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp, 3-5 minutes. 4. Reduce heat to low, and add flour gradually and stir to combine, making sure all flour is fully incorporated. Cook 3o seconds, stirring occasionally. 5. Add milk a little at a time, stirring constantly until all milk is added. (Adding it gradually at first will help prevent a lumpy gravy). 6. Add in black pepper and stir. 7. Cook gravy, stirring occasionally until thickened, 2-3 minutes. 8. While Creamed Chipped Beef thickens, prepare your toast. 9. Spoon cream chipped beef over toast, and top with additional black pepper and fresh or dried chives, if desired. Serve hot!
