How to Make Giblet Gravy Microwave

  1. Pierce the membranes of 1 pound of giblets (liver, heart, gizzard) and place them in a 1-quart casserole dish with 1 cup of water, 1/2 cup chopped onion, and 1/2 cup chopped celery.
  2. Cover the casserole dish and microwave on medium power (50%) for 45-50 minutes, or until the giblets are tender.
  3. Carefully remove the casserole dish from the microwave and reserve the cooking liquid (approximately 1 cup).
  4. Chop the cooked giblets finely and set aside.
  5. Pour the drippings from your roasted turkey into a 4-cup microwave-safe measuring cup. Microwave on high power (100%) for 1-2 minutes, or until hot.
  6. Whisk in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper into the hot turkey drippings until completely smooth.
  7. Gradually whisk in the reserved giblet broth (about 1 cup), ensuring a smooth consistency. Cover the measuring cup.
  8. Microwave on high power (100%) for 3-4 minutes, stirring every minute to prevent lumps from forming.
  9. Add the chopped giblets to the gravy and microwave on high power (100%) for 1-2 minutes, or until the gravy has thickened to your desired consistency.
