Let’s Make Some Magic!
Ingredients:
- 8 ounces dried chipped beef
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 cups whole milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 slices of your favorite bread, toasted
Instructions:
Step 1: Prep the Beef
Rinse the chipped beef under cold water to remove excess salt. Pat dry with a paper towel and shred into smaller pieces.
Step 2: Creamy Dreamy Sauce
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until smooth. Gradually whisk in milk, stirring constantly until thickened (about 5-7 minutes).
Season with salt and pepper to taste (remember, the beef is already salty!).
Step 3: Combine & Simmer
Add the shredded chipped beef to the sauce. Simmer gently for 2-3 minutes to blend the flavors.
Step 4: Serve it Up!
Spoon the creamed chipped beef generously over toasted bread slices. Enjoy!
Variations
Keto-Friendly Version
For a keto-friendly option, substitute almond or coconut flour for the all-purpose flour and use unsweetened almond or coconut milk instead of whole milk.
