Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat and add the butter. When the butter is melted, add the onion, carrot, and celery. Sauté until mostly tender, about 8 minutes.
- Stir in the garlic powder, thyme, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, then add the flour and cook stirring often for about 2-3 minutes.
