Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 cups chicken broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.

Step 2

Once the butter has melted, whisk in the all-purpose flour. Continue whisking for 2-3 minutes to cook out the raw flour taste. The mixture should become a smooth, golden-colored roux.

Step 3

Gradually pour in the chicken broth, about 1/4 cup at a time, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming.

Step 4

Once all the chicken broth has been incorporated and the mixture is smooth, slowly whisk in the heavy cream.

Step 5

Add garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.

Step 6

Bring the gravy to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently, until it thickens to your desired consistency. This should take about 5-7 minutes.

Step 7

Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt or pepper if necessary.

Step 8

Remove the gravy from heat and serve warm over your favorite dishes.
