TURKEY GRAVY



Turkey Gravy image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     condiment

Time 35m

Yield 32 ounces

Number Of Ingredients 5

Turkey giblets, reserved from the turkey
1/4 cup fat from roasted turkey drippings
1/3 cup flour, plus more if needed
32 ounces low-sodium chicken broth, plus more if needed
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Boil the giblets in a small saucepan of water over medium heat until cooked, about 30 minutes. Remove the giblets, set aside, and keep the water in the saucepan.
  • In the same roasting pan used to cook the turkey (which should not have been cleaned!) add the reserved turkey fat. Sprinkle in the flour and whisk into the fat until it's all worked together into a paste. If the paste is too thick/clumpy, add in a little more grease. If it's too greasy, sprinkle in more flour. Whisk and cook the roux over medium-low heat until deep golden brown.
  • Pour in the chicken broth, whisking the whole time. Allow to cook and thicken for several minutes, whisking occasionally. If the gravy gets too thick, or if it's too salty, thin it out with a little of the giblet water. If gravy is too thin, just keep cooking it until it thickens up.
  • Add plenty of black pepper. Chop up the giblets and add them in. Remove as much of the neck meat as you can and add it to the gravy. Serve immediately!

CLASSIC GRAVY

Categories     condiment

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 bag of giblets from a turkey (gizzards, liver and neck)
Turkey drippings from a freshly cooked turkey
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour, plus more if needed
4 cups low-sodium chicken stock, plus more if needed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the giblets in a saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Cook until the giblets are cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and let the giblets sit in the water, allowing them to cool.
  • Remove the giblets from the saucepan and chop the liver and gizzards. Pick the meat from the neck bone and discard the bones. Save the giblet broth.
  • Pour the turkey drippings from the roasting pan into a pitcher. Allow the fat to rise to the top, leaving the stock juices at the bottom. Ladle or pour the fat into a separate container.
  • Place the roasting pan on the stove over medium heat. Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the reserved fat. Sprinkle over the flour and whisk to combine, scraping the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. If it is too oily, sprinkle in another 1 to 2 tablespoons of flour. If it is too dry, add more fat and stir until the flour and fat are combined. Continue to cook the roux until it is golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • While whisking, pour in the chicken stock. Cook, whisking gently, until the mixture begins to thicken. Pour in the stock juice drippings from the pitcher and continue to cook, stirring, until thick, 4 to 5 minutes. Thin as needed with the giblet stock and additional broth if needed. Stir in the giblets and season to taste with salt and black pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes or so until the giblets are warmed through, then serve.

MAMA'S CORNBREAD AND CHICKEN CASSEROLE - DEE DEE'S



Mama's Cornbread and Chicken Casserole - Dee Dee's image

Mama's Cornbread & Chicken Casserole is a great dish for anytime. However, it is especially nice for the holidays if you only have a small crowd to feed and you want to keep that chicken and dressing tradition alive. This dish reminds me of Chicken and Dressing with gravy oozing inside it. And with the boiled eggs, more like ...

Categories     Casseroles

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 to 6 chicken breast, boiled (reserve broth)
1 can(s) cream of celery soup
1 can(s) cream of chicken soup
1 c chicken broth (reserved from cooking chicken)
1 stick margarine or butter, melted
1 pan of corn bread (8 or 9-inch pan) recipe doesn't call for it, however, i add sliced celery and chopped onion to the cornbread batter before baking
2 boiled eggs, chopped up, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat ovent to 325 degrees.
  • 2. Cook (boil) chicken breasts until done; save 1 cup broth. (For added flavor, I added 1/2 cup of chopped celery, 1/2 cup chopped onion and 3 chicken bouilon cubes to this broth) Freeze remaining broth to use in other dishes.
  • 3. Remove chicken from broth and cool enough to handle. Pull chicken off bones; cut in bite size pieces; set aside.
  • 4. In the mean time, bake your favorite cornbread. After baking cornbread, let cool. Crumble up corn bread fine and pour melted margarine over corn bread. Mix well; set aside. NOTE 2: if cornbread is warm just add butter that is at room temperature to the warm crumbs and stir to combine. NOTE 2: I made a 10-inch skillet of cornbread and took out 2 slices to serve with our meal.
  • 5. To the cut up chicken add 1 cup chicken broth and both cans of soup. NOTE: If you don't have cream of celery, use 2 cans of cream of chicken.
  • 6. In a greased casserole dish place a little more than half (I used about 2/3's of this mixture) of the corn bread mixture; spoon meat mixture on top of cornbread mixture. Add boiled eggs if desired, and top with remaining corn bread mixture.
  • 7. Bake at 325 degrees until bubbly. Ovens vary so start watching around 30 to 35 minutes. It took my dish 45 minutes. The last 2 minutes I turned the broiler on to give the top of casserole a toasty finish.
  • 8. NOTE: I served mashed potatoes with Lynn Socko's https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/lynn-socko/chicken-gravy/quick-easy-healthy-gravy, peas I canned this summer and a slice of cornbread...YUM!

OUR FAMILY TRADITION CHICKEN AND DRESSING - DEE DEE'S



Our Family Tradition Chicken and Dressing - Dee Dee's image

Boiling the chicken is recommended for this recipe because the broth makes the dressing. You can't make old-fashioned corn bread dressing without it. So please, don't use broth from a can for this recipe. It's definitely not the same. My mother & grandmother always made Cornbread Turkey and Dressing for our holiday meals. This...

2 to 3 qt water
1/3 c each: celery, onion, bell pepper, chopped
2 clove garic, minced
salt and pepper
INGREDIENTS FOR CORNBREAD DRESSING
1 large skillet of your favorite cornbread to which you added 1 cup each of celery, green pepper, and onions before baking.
salt and pepper to taste
1 to 2 Tbsp poultry seasoning
1 1/2 to 2 Tbsp sage, ground
1 plus c chicken broth
1 can(s) cream of chicken soup
4 eggs
3 or 4 dinner rolls
1/2 c butter or margarine

Steps:

  • 1. The beautiful gravy pictured with this dressing is our Lynn Socko's Chicken Gravy: https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/lynn-socko/chicken-gravy/quick-easy-healthy-gravy?k=chicken+gravy&p=1&o=r
  • 2. If you prefer a giblet gravy with dressing, this is a wonderful old fashion gravy that we've use for a very long time: https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/diane-smith/mamas-giblet-gravy-dee-dees/gravy
  • 3. DIRECTIONS FOR CHICKEN AND BROTH
  • 4. You need 1 large fryer (whole chicken) Remove gizzards/livers inside chicken, and then wash in clear water. Place in large pot with 2 to 3 quarts water; add salt, pepper, 2 cloves of garlic, chopped fine, add 1/3 cup of each chopped vegetables; onions, green pepper, and celery to the pot.
  • 5. Cover and cook on high heat until it starts to boil. Reduce heat and continue boiling about 35 to 45 minutes or until almost done. Remove from pot. Set aside. Keep chicken broth. Remember the broth is what makes the dressing.
  • 6. DIRECTIONS FOR CORNBREAD DRESSING
  • 7. You will need a very large bowl to combine ingredients for dressing. Break hot cornbread into bite size pieces, add margarine or butter. Add salt, pepper, poultry seasoning, and sage. Add Cream of Chicken Soup and eggs. Continue mixing. Add a cup of broth to start, add rolls. Mix well. Add more broth until dressing is the texture desired. Set aside.
  • 8. Lightly rub top of chicken with margarine then sprinkle with paprika. Bake at 425 degree until done about 30 minutes.
  • 9. Next, pour dressing in a large deep greased casserole dish and bake dressing until hot all the way through and top and edges start to brown about 30 to 40 minutes. NOTE: oven temps vary so watch close, you don't want a runny dressing and you don't want it dry.
  • 10. IMPORTANT TIPS TO REMEMBER: • For a drier dressing use less broth, for a moist dressing, use more broth. • When using poultry and sage seasoning, use according to your taste. You may want to add more seasonings or less, just be careful not to add too much, it will overpower the natural flavors. Seasonings make or break the flavor in corn bread dressing. • Make the dressing a day before serving. This gives the seasonings time to spread flavor throughout. Just make sure you cover and store in the refrigerator until ready to use. • For more flavor, cut up chicken gizzards and livers in dressing before baking.

GIBLET GRAVY



Giblet Gravy image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Time 50m

Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 bag giblets
Turkey drippings
5 to 6 tablespoons flour
2 to 4 cups low sodium chicken broth
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Pour the contents of the giblet bags into a large saucepan. Cover with water and boil until cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn off the heat and set aside. Remove the giblets from the pan, allow them to cool, and then chop up the gizzards and liver. Pick the meat from the neck. Discard the bones.
  • Pour all the turkey drippings out of the roasting pan into a separate container. Allow grease to separate from the juices. Ladle out the fat into another bowl.
  • Place the roasting pan over 2 burners over medium heat (there should be lots of yummy brown bits in the pan). Add 3 to 4 tablespoons of the fat back into the pan. Whisk it around to evenly distribute it throughout the pan. Sprinkle 5 to 6 tablespoons of flour over the grease and whisk to combine it with the fat, loosening the bits from the bottom of the pan a little in the process. Cook the roux until it becomes a deep golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Pour in the chicken broth, whisking constantly. Add 2 to 4 cups, depending on your need. Cook the gravy, whisking gently, until the mixture begins to thicken. Pour in a little bit of the turkey drippings, but be aware that because the brine is so salty, these drippings are very salty. Keep cooking the gravy until thick, adding in chopped giblets, to taste, as well as plenty of black pepper. Use the giblet water from the saucepan to thin the gravy if it gets too thick.
  • Serve when very thick and flavorful.

Categories     condiment

Time 40m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

2 cups caramelized mirepoix from Delicious Doctored Dressing, recipe follows
1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh sage
1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme
Two 12-ounce jars store-bought gravy
1 cup pan juices from a roast turkey
1/4 cup chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
2 tablespoons butter, plus more for the baking dish
2 tablespoons oil
2 cups finely diced celery
2 carrots, peeled and finely diced
1 large onion, finely diced
1 fennel bulb, finely diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup cubed peeled celery root
1 cup cubed peeled parsnips
1 cup cubed peeled turnips
One 12-ounce package herb seasoned cubed stuffing mix, such as Pepperidge Farm
2 cups chicken broth, plus 1/2 cup more if reheating
1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Add the caramelized mirepoix, sage and thyme to a saute pan, mix together and heat over medium until hot. Add the gravy, turkey pan juices, chicken broth, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer--don't boil it--and simmer until reduced slightly, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a dish, let cool and then cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
  • When ready to serve, bring the gravy back to a simmer. Stir in the chopped eggs and pour into a pitcher.
  • Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
  • In a saute pan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon each of the butter and oil. When the butter is melted, add the celery, carrots, onion and fennel (mirepoix) and saute until caramelized, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and stir through. Scoop out 2 cups of the caramelized mirepoix and reserve for the gravy. Put the remaining caramelized mirepoix in a large bowl (you should have about 4 cups).
  • Heat a second saute pan over medium heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon each butter and oil and heat until the butter is melted. Add the celery root, parsnips and turnips and saute until caramelized, about 10 minutes. Transfer the mixture to the bowl with the mirepoix and add the stuffing mix. Add the chicken broth, parsley, salt and pepper and toss together. Transfer the stuffing mixture to the prepared baking dish.
  • If baking right away, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cover with foil and bake until the stuffing is heated through, about 1 hour.
  • If making ahead of time, cover the unbaked stuffing with foil and refrigerate overnight. The next day, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bring the stuffing to room temperature, then drizzle with 1/2 cup of chicken broth. Bake, covered with foil, until heated through, about 1 hour.

Tips:

  • Brown the giblets: Browning the giblets before adding them to the gravy will help to develop their flavor. You can brown the giblets in a skillet over medium heat until they are golden brown.
  • Use a good quality stock: The stock you use will make a big difference in the flavor of your gravy. Use a high-quality stock, such as homemade chicken stock or a good quality store-bought stock.
  • Season your gravy to taste: Season your gravy with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to taste. You can also add a splash of white wine or sherry to the gravy for extra flavor.
  • Let your gravy simmer: Simmering your gravy for a while will help to develop its flavor. Simmer your gravy for at least 30 minutes, or longer if you have time.
