1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1/4 cup chicken broth
1-1/2 teaspoons dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 cups cubed cooked chicken
1/2 cup prepared pesto
1 can (3.8 ounces) sliced ripe olives, drained
1 egg, lightly beaten

Instructions
In a large saucepan, saute red pepper and onion in butter until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in flour until blended; gradually stir in the milk, broth, basil and oregano.
