3 tbsp butter 
3 tbsp flour 
1/2 cup chopped onion 
1/2 cup chopped bell pepper 
1 to 1 1/2 cup chicken broth (depending on final consistency desired) 
1 tsp sugar 
1/2 tsp dry mustard 
1 tsp fresh basil, chopped fine 
1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper 
1/4 tsp cayenne or tabasco sauce (to taste) 

Melt butter in large skillet and saute onion and bell pepper till tender 
Blend in flur and cook just a bit 
Add the chicken broth, tomato sauce, sugar and spices. 
Bring to boil, cover and simmer for 15 - 20 minutes. 

WARNING: for those of you who use Tony's Creole seasoning 
- don't substitute it here, as canned chicken broth is salty enough. 

Add fresh tomatoes and simmer another 5 minutes. 

Serve over hot biscuits or rice....pork chops, chicken, whatever...
