Turkey Gravy

By cmschnettler

Ingredients

• Turkey drippings
• 8 cups chicken broth
• 1/2 cup flour
• Salt & pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Pour turkey drippings into a bowl. Add a splash of chicken broth to the roasting pan & scrape up any browned bits; add to the bowl, then freeze until the fat hardens on top (alternatively use a degreasing cup). Spoon 1/2 cup of the fat into a saucepan, add 1/2 cup flour. Cook over medium heat, stirring until golden 4 minutes. Slowly whisk in 8 cups hot chicken broth; bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Discard remaining fat from the drippings, then add the drippings to the saucepan. Simmer, whisking, until thick, 10 minutes. Season with salt & pepper. Strain to remove lumps if necessary.
