Cook over medium heat, stirring often, for 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside. Melt remaining 3 T. of butter in large, heavy pot.
Add onions; cook gently 5 minutes. Add garlic, cook 2 minutes more. Add chicken stock, bring to a boil, and reduce to a simmer.
Whisk in roux until stock is thicken and smooth. Add remaining ingredients, including juice from canned tomatoes. Simmer 30-45 minutes, stirring often to prevent scorching. This is a thick soup, but you may adjust to your taste by adding more chicken stock. Add salt and pepper to taste.
