Hawaiian Haystack Sauce (scratch)

This is way better than canned soup and sourcream. Doesnt have the "can" taste! Richer and way more flavorful....so worth it! Hawaiian haystacks are one of my favorite meals!! Double the recipe if you are serving more than 6.

2 chicken breasts, cut small pieces
2 T butter
1/2 onion chopped fine
2-3 cloves garlic, pressed
1 tsp salt
pepper to taste
1/4 cup flour
2 cups milk
1 cup chicken broth
Melt butter and add onion and raw chicken , cook on medium till just about done. Add garlic, cook 1 minute. Sprinkle in flour, cook 1 minute. Whisk in milk and broth, simmer, stirring till thickened a bit. Add salt and pepper. Serve over hot rice, and in case you have never made hawaiian haystacks before, top with any of the following:
cheese, chopped tomato, chop celery, pineapple tidbits or mandarins, shredded coconut, peanuts, chop cucumber, chop bell pepper, peas, crunchy chow mein noodles, green onion, WHATEVER!! The more toppings the better, and if you have picky eaters they can add as little as they like to theirs.
