Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 3/4 cups half-and-half
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Whisk in the flour until smooth, forming a roux.
- Gradually add the half-and-half, whisking continuously to prevent lumps, until mixture is smooth and begins to thicken.
- Add garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to the sauce, adjusting to taste.
- Stir in the frozen peas and continue to cook until the peas are heated through, about 5 minutes. Add more half-and-half to thin the sauce if needed.
- Remove from heat and serve immediately as a delicious side dish.
