Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, pour in the chicken broth and place it over medium heat. Bring it to a gentle simmer.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch with the water, stirring until the cornstarch is fully dissolved to create a slurry.
Step 3
Slowly add the cornstarch slurry to the simmering chicken broth while continuously whisking to prevent lump formation.

Continue to cook and whisk the mixture until the gravy begins to thicken, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 5
Add in the onion powder, garlic powder, dried thyme, black pepper, and salt. Whisk to combine all the ingredients well.
Step 6
Let the gravy simmer for another 2 minutes to fully incorporate the flavors and reach your desired thickness.
