Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 Cup turkey drippings from Pan
  • 4 Cups stock chicken or turkey, unsalted
  • 2 garlic minced, cloves
  • 2 Tbsp sage finely chopped, fresh
  • 2 Tbsp thyme fresh leaves
  • 1 Cup milk dairy or non-dairy if necessary
  • 1/4 Cup cornstarch or whole wheat flour or gluten-free flour
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. After you roast the turkey, set the roasting pan with the turkey drippings on a medium-high heat on the stove-top.
  2. Add the stock to the pan, then stir and scrape any turkey bits from the bottom of the roasting pan.
  3. Strain and pour this gravy liquid into a bowl and place it in the fridge for about 15-30 minutes to let the fat float and harden to the top.
  4. Remove hardened fat with a spoon and place the stock into a saucepan. Add in the garlic, sage, and thyme.
  5. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Continue to simmer until the stock is reduced by 1/4, or until about 3 cups of stock remain.
  6. Meanwhile, in a small bowl whisk milk and cornstarch until well combined.
  7. Pour milk mixture into the stock, stirring slowly.
  8. Continue to simmer and stir frequently until stock thickens about 3 to 5 minutes.
  9. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Broth: Use any broth of choice. Chicken or Turkey gravy preferred. 
  • Use unsalted gravy
  • Using Turkey Drippings is optional if you would like to make this turkey gravy ahead
  • Any milk of choice
