Sherry-Spiked Gravy
 
 
Author:
Serves: 6
Ingredients
  • 1 cup pan drippings from a roast turkey or chicken (you can also use beef roast drippings, bouillon cubes, or beef/chicken stock)
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour
  • 1 cup sherry or sherry cooking wine
  • 1 cup chicken stock (use beef stock if you're using a beef roast)
  • 1 bundle fresh thyme
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
  1. Heat the pan drippings in a small pot over medium heat. Whisk in the flour to the pan drippings until the mixture resembles sand. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly.
  2. Deglaze with the sherry, scrapping the bottom of the pan. Add the stock and toss in the thyme and rosemary sprigs.
  3. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Cook for a minimum of five minutes. The longer you cook the richer the flavors become.
  4. Pull out the sprigs of herbs and whisk in two tablespoons of butter. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, if necessary, and serve hot.
