Gravy Recipe (Tastes Like KFC – But A Million Times Better!)
To kick things off, here’s a glimpse at what you’ll create:
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups chicken broth (preferably low-sodium)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: finely chopped herbs for garnish (e.g. parsley or thyme)
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once it’s sizzling, add the flour. Stir continuously for about 1-2 minutes to create a roux. The mixture should turn a light golden brown.
- Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, ensuring there are no lumps. Continue to whisk until the gravy begins to thicken, about 3-5 minutes.
- Once it reaches your desired consistency, stir in the soy sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. These ingredients will add depth to the flavor.
- Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Remember, the soy sauce already contains salt, so taste as you go.
- If desired, sprinkle in some finely chopped herbs for an extra layer of flavor and a pop of color.
- Serve the gravy hot over your favorite dishes. It’s perfect paired with mashed potatoes, roasted meats, or even drizzled over biscuits.
