Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 1 whole Large Onion
• 2 cloves Garlic Cloves
• 2 cups Beef Broth
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
• 1 tablespoon Tamari Sauce (Gluten-Free Soy Sauce)
• 0.5 teaspoon Xanthan Gum
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
• 1 tablespoon Olive Oil

Directions

Step 1

Peel and thinly slice the large onion and mince the garlic cloves.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the sliced onion and a pinch of salt to the saucepan. Stir to coat the onions in the butter and oil.

Step 4

Cook the onions, stirring frequently, for about 25 minutes until they are golden brown and caramelized. If the onions are browning too quickly, reduce the heat.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant.

Step 6

Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and tamari sauce, stirring to combine.

Step 7

Increase the heat slightly and bring the mixture to a simmer. Allow it to simmer for about 10 minutes, letting the flavors meld and the mixture reduce slightly.

Step 8

Taste the gravy and add salt and black pepper as needed.

Step 9

Gradually sprinkle the xanthan gum over the gravy, whisking continuously to prevent clumping and ensure it is evenly distributed.

Step 10

Continue to simmer for another 2-3 minutes until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency.

Step 11

Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the gravy to cool slightly. Serve warm over your favorite low carb dish.
