Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons cooking fat separated from roasting pan juices or slow cooker juices OR butter
- 1 tablespoon whole-wheat flour
- 1 cup juices from the roasting pan, fat removed. You can also use chicken broth.
- salt to taste
- pepper to taste
Instructions
- Separate the cooking fat from the pan juices—a gravy / fat separator makes this job easy.
- Heat the cooking fat (or butter) over medium-low heat until melted. Carefully whisk in the flour to help avoid clumps. Cook until the mixture darkens in color, about 1 to 2 minutes. This step is called making a roux.
- Whisk in the pan juices (or broth/stock) and bring to a light boil. Cook while whisking occasionally until the gravy reduces and thickens. Season with salt and pepper and serve warm over meat or potatoes.

- Homemade chicken stock (which is what we typically use) contains much less salt than store-bought broth. Whichever you use, remember to taste test as you add salt to your gravy.
- We recommend organic ingredients when feasible.
