Servings: 16
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Turkey drippings from Pan
- 4 Cups Unsalted Stock chicken or turkey
- 2 Garlic Cloves minced
- 2 Tbsp Fresh Sage finely chopped
- 2 Tbsp Fresh thyme leaves
- 1 Cup Milk dairy or non-dairy if necessary
- 1/4 Cup Cornstarch, Whole Wheat Flour or gluten-free flour
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Instructions
- After you roast the turkey, set the roasting pan with the turkey drippings on a medium-high heat on the stove-top.
- Add the stock to the pan, then stir and scrape any turkey bits from the bottom of the roasting pan.
- 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.
- Remove hardened fat with a spoon and place the stock into a saucepan. Add in the garlic, sage, and thyme.
- 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.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl whisk milk and cornstarch until well combined.
- Pour milk mixture into the stock, stirring slowly.
- Continue to simmer and stir frequently until stock thickens about 3 to 5 minutes.
- 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
