Stir in the green onions and seasoning and cook, stirring, for about 1 minute longer. Add 1 cup
of the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 3 to 5
minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. In a cup, whisk the gravy mix with the
remaining 1/2 cup chicken broth; stir into the simmering mixture until smooth. Add
half-and-half or milk and stir until hot and well blended.
