Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
4 tbsp avocado oil (or vegetable oil or any other neutral oil)
4 tbsp all purpose or gluten free flour
8 tbsp chili powder (not cayenne)
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt ( I use half)
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp dried oregano
4 cups chicken or vegetable stock

Note if you use regular chicken stock and not low sodium, I don't add any salt

Directions:
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add flour and whisk together over the heat for one minute. Stir in the remaining seasonings ( chili powder through oregano) Then gradually add in the stock, whisking constantly to remove lumps.

2. Reduce heat and simmer 10-15 minutes until slightly thickened.

3. Use immediately or refrigerate in an air-tight container for us to 3 days.

This sauce can be a little spicy depending on your chili powder. You can use 6 tbsp chili powder and 2 tbsp chipotle powder for a smokier sauce. I like the chipotle. It was hotter than I thought it would be.

You can start with 4 tbsp chili powder and add more from there if you think the sauce will be too hot for not so spicy lovers.

Personal Notes:
I used it to make chicken enchiladas with corn tortillas. Pop does not like flour tortillas. It made plenty for me to put in the freezer.
