Hawaiian Haystacks

I've re-fallen in love with the Mel's Kitchen website and found a few recipes I wanted to share.  Brad had never had Hawaiian haystacks before and they sounded good.  The recipe is pretty easy too :)  I got it here.

Ingredients:
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
3 tablespoons butter
1/2 onion, finely chopped
3 cloves minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup flour
2 cups milk
1 cup chicken broth

Directions:
1. In a large skillet melt the butter over medium heat and add the onion and chicken.  Saute until the onions are soft and the chicken is cooked thru (about 5-6 minutes).  Add the garlic and cook for about a minute, stirring, until fragrant.
2. Sprinkle the flour over the onions and chicken and stir to combine.  Cook over medium heat for one minute.  Slowly whisk in the milk and chicken broth.  Cook, stirring constantly, with a whisk, and bring the sauce to a simmer over medium to medium-high heat (this took me forever, I think I stood there stirring for about 10 minutes...just FYI).  Add the salt and pepper.  Continue simmering, stirring the sauce frequently, until the sauce has thickened (she says 5-8 minutes, I let mine simmer closer to 10-12).
Serve chicken sauce over rice with toppings.  We used tomatoes, green onions, cheddar cheese, pineapple, and chow mein noodles.

Again, another recipe that even Will liked.  Brad kept complimenting me the whole meal and was really excited to eat the leftovers for lunch the next day.

Portion control, just FYI, this served Brad, Kelli, and I with good size servings, Will with a little serving and had leftovers for 1 good serving or 2 decent servings.  Bigger families might want to double it or do another half (to make 1.5 servings).
