Melt the butter over medium-low flame in a heavy bottomed pot. Add the garlic and cook until translucent. Add flour to create roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes. Add the cream slowly and stir until sauce thickens. Add the jar of green chili stew, the chicken stock, the bay leaves, and the can of hatch green chilies. Cover and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Watch so it does not burn.
