Turkey is leaner, and chicken thighs are generally less expensive than breasts.

Start with homemade chicken broth as the base for the soup.

Add 1/2 stick of butter to a pot and melt it.

Whisk in 3/4 cup of all-purpose flour until combined and cooked down.

Add poultry seasoning, granulated onion, granulated garlic, salt, and pepper to taste.

Slowly whisk in the chicken broth to avoid lumps from the roux.

Add reserved milk and continue whisking until reaching a low boil, checking the edges for bubbling.

Once at a low boil, reduce heat and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes until thickened, tasting for salt adjustment as needed.
