Ingredients
  

  • 3 tbsp oil
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour or GF flour
  • 1 tbsp chili powder (use 2 tbsp for more spice)
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • pinch of cinnamon (optional)
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 2 cups chickenless broth or veg broth
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Measure all your spices and ingredients out ahead of time. Keep them in a bowl next to the stove. Don't walk away from the stove as this sauce requires constant attention!
  • In a saucepan on medium heat, add the oil and wait until it's warm.
  • Next, add in the flour. You should get a nice little sizzle when the flour comes in contact with the oil.
  • Add in all the dried spices and whisk constantly for about 1 minute.
  • Add the tomato paste, mix and slowly add in the chickenless broth. Whisk constantly to remove any lumps.
  • Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Cook the sauce for about 5-7 minutes whisking constantly until it thickens.
