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

[email protected]I like to get creative with my gravy. Sometimes I'll add some chopped vegetables, like mushrooms or onions. Or I'll stir in some cranberry sauce for a sweet and tangy flavor. This recipe is a great base for experimenting with different flavors.

[email protected]I love how this recipe allows you to customize the flavor of the gravy. I added some fresh thyme and rosemary, and it gave the gravy a delicious herbal flavor. I also added a bit of white wine, which gave it a nice acidity.
