Gravy Ingredients

Method

Gravy Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Roux

    In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the pan drippings and allow them to heat up.

  2. 2

    Whisk in the all-purpose flour, stirring constantly until the mixture turns a golden brown color, about 3-5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Broth

    Gradually whisk in the chicken or beef broth, ensuring there are no lumps.

  4. 4

    Bring the mixture to a simmer, and continue to whisk until the gravy thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

  5. 5

    Season the Gravy

    Add salt, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Adjust seasoning to taste.
