Kittencal's Easy No-Fail Make Anytime Turkey Gravy image

I have been using this recipe for many years, my family loves this gravy and I have served it to dinner guests over the holidays and always receive rave reviews! --- you don't need to make this gravy using all pan drippings, if you do not have 4 cups of drippings you may mix with chicken broth to make the 4 cups, or it may be made with only chicken broth, please see note on the bottom of the recipe--- this may be made slightly ahead and kept uncovered on top of the stove until ready to serve, just whisk before using If you have any left over this gravy freezes very well or you may reduce all ingredients down to half and for a thinner gravy reduce flour by 1 tablespoon --- also see my recipe#314890 for more of my recipes visit www.kittencalskitchen.com

Time 20m

Yield 5 cups (approx)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup butter (can use hard margarine)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon black pepper (more is better, I use freshly ground pepper)
4 cups pan drippings (or see options below the recipe)

Steps:

  • Drain the pan drippings for the roasted turkey through a fine strainer.
  • Let sit and then remove any fat from the top of the drippings.
  • Add in chicken broth or water to make 4 cups if necessary.
  • In a medium saucepan, melt margarine or butter.
  • Add in lots of black pepper.
  • Add in 1/2 cup flour plus 3 tablespoons; constantly whisk for about 3 minutes over low heat.
  • Slowly add in the 4 cups turkey broth/drippings; whisk constantly over medium-low heat until bubbly and thickened (about 3 minutes).
  • Use right away or keep warm over lowest heat setting, whisk again before serving.
  • **OPTIONS** to make this gravy using all chicken broth prepare as directed using 4 cups low sodium chicken broth and 1 tablespoon chicken boullion powder ---- or you may add in low sodium chicken broth omitting bouillon powder to pan drippings to make up 4 cups.

I followed the recipe exactly and my gravy turned out lumpy. Not sure what I did wrong.

I made this gravy for my family's Christmas dinner and it was a hit! Everyone loved it. It was so easy to make and it tasted just like my grandmother's gravy. I will definitely be making this again.
