Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons corn oil
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 cup onion (chopped)

• 2 cups roasted New Mexico green chilies (peeled or seeded or chopped)
• 2 cups beef broth
• 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

1. 1

   In heavy-bottomed sauce pan, saute onions in corn oil until they begin to brown.

2. 2

   Add garlic and cook another 2 minutes.

3. 3

   Stir flour in with onions and garlic so that it thickens.

4. 4

   Add chopped chilies, beef broth and salt and mix well. Bring to a boil and simmer 10 to 15 minutes to allow mixture to reduce. The sauce should be thick enough to bind chilies and onions together. Sauce can be refrigerated for three days, or frozen.
