Gravy for New Year's chicken
Votes: 1
Time: 45 min.
As the turkey roasts on the grill, all the rendered juices and fat drip into the roasting pan. Don't throw them away; instead, use them as a base for a delicious gravy, which can also be served at your holiday table. The simplest version of gravy is made by simply adding water, broth, and flour to the turkey juices to thicken it. But you can experiment with the ingredients and add various flavors to the basic gravy, such as spices, lemon zest, herbs, or aromatic vinegar.

We recommend
Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Strain the roasting pan juices into a grease separator or large liquid measuring cup. Place the empty roasting pan over two burners and heat over medium heat. Splash in a little water and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom; add to the glass containing the juices.
- Skim 0.5 cups of fat from the surface of the juices and return it to the roasting pan. If you don't have enough fat to reach 0.5 cups, add vegetable oil. Place the roasting pan over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook, whisking, until smooth and golden, 2-3 minutes.
- Stir in the juices and enough broth to make 8 cups of liquid. Bring to a boil and simmer, whisking, until the sauce thickens, 15-25 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
