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 toasted bread
Instructions:
Step 1: Prep the Beef
Rinse the chipped beef under cold water to remove excess salt. Pat dry and shred into smaller pieces.
Step 2: Make the Cream Sauce
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Slowly whisk in milk until thickened (about 5-7 minutes).
Season with salt and pepper (use sparingly, as the beef is salty).
Step 3: Combine and Simmer
Add the shredded beef to the sauce and simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Step 4: Serve it Up!
Spoon the creamed beef generously onto toasted bread. Enjoy!
Variations
Keto-Friendly SOS
