Turkey Gravy
This rich and savory turkey gravy is perfect for your holiday meals, utilizing turkey drippings and giblets for a flavorful sauce.
Ingredients
- giblets and neck from turkey (1.25 pounds)
- chopped onion (1 cup)
- chopped celery (1 cup)
- dry turkey gravy mix (2 packages)
- ground white pepper (1 pinch)
- chicken broth (3 cans)
- turkey drippings (1.75 cups)
- quick-mixing flour (0.25 cup)
- milk (0.5 cup)
Instructions
- Place giblets and turkey neck into a large saucepan. Add onion, celery, turkey gravy mix, and white pepper. Pour chicken broth over all, bring to a simmer over medium-low heat, and cook for 30 minutes.
- Remove turkey liver and set aside. Simmer stock for 2 ½ more hours.
- Remove remaining giblets from stock and chop with liver; set aside. Strain stock into a liquid measure. You should have about 3 cups; add more chicken broth if needed. Pour stock into a saucepan. Discard strained turkey neck and vegetables.
- When turkey is finished roasting, pour pan drippings into a bowl or fat separator and skim off fat. Whisk quick-mixing flour into drippings until smooth, then whisk flour mixture into stock in the saucepan. Bring gravy to a simmer over medium heat, whisking constantly. Add chopped giblets. Stir in milk until desired smoothness is reached.
