Ingredients
- 1 1/2 Cups drippings from roasted turkey
- 4 Tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/2 Cup chicken stock if needed if you have more turkey drippings use that in place of the chicken stock
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- Fresh rosemary and thyme sprigs or 1 teaspoon dried herbs, Finely Chopped
Instructions
- After removing the roasted turkey from the oven, carefully transfer the drippings into a separate container or a measuring cup.
- Melt the butter over medium heat in a large pan.
- Sprinkle the flour over the melted butter, stir continually for about 2-3 minutes, ensuring the flour is well incorporated and lightly cooked.
- Slowly whisk in the turkey drippings and the chicken stock (if using), until the mixture forms a smooth consistency. If needed, add more chicken stock until you achieve a desired thickness.
- Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the gravy to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Allow it to simmer for about 5 minutes, or until it thickens to your preferred consistency.
- Add the fresh rosemary and thyme (or dried herbs) to the gravy. Stir well to incorporate the flavors. Simmer for an additional 1-2 minutes.
- Taste the gravy and season with salt and pepper to your liking. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
- Remove the gravy from the heat and strain it through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps or herb remnants.
- Transfer the strained gravy to a serving boat or bowl, and it’s ready to be enjoyed alongside your turkey or favorite sides such as mashed potatoes. Enjoy!
