How to Make Kittencal's Easy Make Anytime Fat Free Gravy

  1. **Defat Drippings (if using):** If using pan drippings, carefully separate the fat using a fat separator.
  2. **Prepare Broth:** In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine 2 cups of defatted pan drippings or low-sodium chicken/beef broth.
  3. **Season Broth:** Add 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon chicken bouillon powder (omit if using flavorful drippings).
  4. **Simmer Broth:** Cook over medium-low heat until gently simmering.
  5. **Make Roux:** In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and 1 cup milk until completely smooth and lump-free.
  6. **Thicken Gravy:** Gradually whisk the flour-milk mixture into the simmering broth, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
  7. **Cook Until Thickened:** Continue stirring until the gravy bubbles and reaches your desired thickness (about 2-3 minutes).
  8. **Season & Serve:** Season with additional black pepper to taste. Serve immediately over your favorite mashed potatoes, roast chicken, or turkey.
