Balsamic & Herb Turkey Gravy
Balsamic vinegar and thyme give this gravy a deep and rich flavor.
Ingredients
- Roasted turkey drippings
- 3 cups GF chicken broth*
- 1/4 cup butter or margarine
- 1/4 cup brown rice flour
- 2 tsp - 4 tsp GF balsamic vinegar to taste
- 2 tsp dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Strain pan juices and solids into measuring cup (skim of as much fat as you like). Add enough broth to make up to 4 cups.
- In a large skillet melt butter, then add flour and cook for 3-5 minutes over low heat, stirring often (this is called a 'roux').
- Whisk in the stock a little at a time, then add in the thyme.
- Continue simmering until gravy is thickened, stirring often.
- Just before serving, add the vinegar, and adjust to taste with salt and pepper.
Notes
*if you are boiling potatoes for your dinner, save the water and use it instead of the chicken broth. The starch in the water acts as a natural thickener.
