How to Make Chicken Beef Or Turkey Gravy

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large sauté pan over medium-low heat. Add 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned (approximately 15 minutes).
  2. Whisk together 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper in a small bowl. Gradually whisk the flour mixture into the onions, cooking for about 3 minutes until lightly toasted.
  3. Gradually whisk in 4 cups of hot chicken, beef, or turkey stock (or bouillon – see notes for bouillon instructions).
  4. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and cook uncovered for 5-7 minutes, or until the gravy has thickened to your desired consistency, stirring occasionally. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
  5. Remove from heat and serve immediately over your favorite meat and mashed potatoes or other sides.
