Sauce Espagnole - Spanish Sauce image

Wonderful, flavorful sauce that is great over any kind of enchiladas, or even a plain chicken breast. So much flavor in such a simple quick recipe! *Note:* Stock is important and should be used rather than broth. If broth is used you will have a less flavorful, less full bodied sauce. There are many great recipes here on Zaar for stock and you can even find stock at your grocery now too! Any type will do, beef, chicken, even make it vegetarian! Hope you enjoy!

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 small onion
1 stalk celery
1 carrot
2 bell peppers
2 large parsley sprigs
1 bay leaf
3 tablespoons flour
1 whole clove
1 teaspoon salt

This sauce is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if it had been less sugary.
