By martha-2

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
• 1/2 red onion, chopped
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 bay leaf
• 2 1/2 cups beef broth
• 1 large russet potato, diced into 1/4-inch cubes
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 1/4 cup roughly chopped parsley, for garnish

Preparation

Step 1

In a large straight-sided skillet heat 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and saute until tender, about 3 minutes. Whisk in the flour, stirring to combine with the butter. Add the bay leaf and broth and bring to a simmer. Cook until slightly thickened, then add the potatoes. Cook until the potatoes are tender and the gravy has thickened, about 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and the parsley. Serve poured over Sunny's Chicken Fried Steak.
