Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 4 cups turkey drippings or stock
- 1 tablespoon chicken or turkey bouillon granules
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 0 to taste salt (if needed)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until fully melted and bubbling slightly.
Step 2
Whisk in the flour and cook for approximately 2 minutes, stirring constantly to form a smooth roux. The roux should appear lightly golden but not browned.
Step 3
Slowly pour in the turkey drippings or stock, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
Step 4
Add the chicken or turkey bouillon granules, garlic powder, onion powder, and ground black pepper. Stir to combine.
Step 5
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency.
Step 6
Taste the gravy and adjust the seasoning by adding salt if necessary.
Step 7
If the gravy becomes too thick, thin it out with a small amount of stock or water until the desired consistency is reached.
Step 8
Remove the gravy from heat and serve warm. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
