Equipment
- 2-quart pan
- whisk
Ingredients
- 3 tbs Unsalted Butter
- 3 tbs All-Purpose Flour
- 2 c Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
- ½ tsp Kosher Salt to taste
- 1 tsp Freshly Ground Black Pepper
Instructions
- Melt the unsalted butter in a 2-quart saucepan over medium-low heat. Once the butter has melted, add the all-purpose flour. Whisk the butter and flour together to form a light roux. Cook, stirring constantly, for a minute to cook the flour.
- Add the chicken broth. Whisk the broth into the roux constantly until the mixture is smooth. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil. Then, reduce the heat and simmer, whisking constantly, just until the gravy has thickened, for about 1 to 2 minutes. (Do not cook it too long, or the gravy will become super thick and too salty.)
- Remove from the heat and add Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Transfer to a gravy boat and serve immediately.
- Yield 8 servings
