Instructions
- Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat.
- Sprinkle in the flour, stirring with a wooden spoon to mix it with the butter. Stir constantly as this cooks over medium heat for 2-5 minutes, or until the flour has browned slightly and smells nutty. This is a roux and is the base for our gravy recipe.
- Slowly, pour the turkey drippings into the pan, stirring constantly. Let the mixture continue to cook and thicken.
- Pour in the chicken stock slowly, stirring occasionally, and letting the gravy thicken until bubbly and it coats the back of a spoon.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- This recipe can easily be halved if you want less gravy to serve.
- How to store leftover gravy: Add your cooled leftover gravy to an airtight, food-safe container and store it in the fridge for up to three days.
- How to reheat leftover gravy: Heat it up in the microwave until it’s liquid again. You may need to add some stock to thin it out, if desired.
- How to use leftover gravy: You can easily reuse gravy after the holiday meal. See the section above called what to make with leftover gravy. We like to use leftover gravy on leftovers, as well as add it to sandwiches, tacos and more.
