How to Make Janos Maple Syrup Gravy
- Place 1/4 cup rendered chicken fat or bacon grease in a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat.
- Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the grease is shimmering and any water has evaporated. (It will sizzle and spatter.)
- Whisk in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour constantly until a smooth roux forms (about 1 minute).
- Cook the roux for 5-7 minutes, whisking constantly, until it's a light golden brown. Be careful not to burn it.
- Reduce heat to low. Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup pure maple syrup until fully incorporated.
- Gradually whisk in 1 1/2 cups of low-sodium chicken stock, ensuring each addition is fully incorporated before adding more. The gravy will start thick and become smoother as more stock is added.
- Simmer over low heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the gravy has thickened to your desired consistency.
- Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
