Country Gravy

tbsp butter

tbsp all-purpose flour

chicken bouillon

⅛ tsp seasoning salt

⅛ tsp Old Bay Seasoning

¼ tsp black pepper

onion powder

salt

½ cup half and half

Melt the butter completely in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Make sure it evenly covers the bottom of the pan.

Using a whisk, add the flour and continuously stir to combine with the butter.

Cook, while stirring constantly, for 3 minutes. The color should change to a warm toasted brown shade.

Add bouillon, seasoning salt, Old Bay Seasoning, pepper, onion powder, and salt. Continue to whisk.

Add milk and half and half and continue to stir for another 5 minutes. The gravy will start to thicken so stirring is important to keep the thickness consistent and ensure there are no lumps.

If you find it too thick, you can add more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.

White Gravy Recipe

all purpose flour

chicken

tsp black pepper

salt (*See Cook's note)

tsp garlic

-3 cups whole milk

In a large heavy bottomed skillet or saucepan melt the butter over medium heat.

To the butter add the all purpose flour. Wisk until the butter has been absorbed.

To the pan add the chicken soup base, black pepper, salt, granulated garlic and onion powder, stir to combine.

Increase the heat to medium-high and gradually whisk in 2 1/2 cups milk. Bring to a gentle boil whisking constantly. Once it comes to temperature immediately lower the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

Serve immediately over fried chicken, mashed potatoes, rice or buttermilk biscuits.

Special Note: Chicken soup base is a paste that features a concentrated flavor which is salty by nature. Since salt is subjective, I recommend tasting the gravy before adding the additional 1/4 teaspoon of salt. The soup base may be ample to season the gravy with no additional salt needed. If you&#39;re salt sensitive, you may choose to taste and add or omit additional salt, based on your personal preference. Do so only after only after all of the ingredients have been incorporated.

A Southern classic, this homemade white gravy is a true taste of down-home comfort cooking!  It&#039;s ready in less than 10 minutes and is deliciously versatile.

Chicken-Fried Chicken And Country Gravy Recipe

chicken bouillon powder

chicken breasts

baking powder

baking soda

buttermilk

schmaltz

To make the seasoning blend, place bouillon powder, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and salt in a small bowl, stir to combine, and set aside.

Sandwich the chicken breasts in between sheets of wax paper or plastic wrap.

Pound the chicken using a meat mallet into thinner cutlets.

Season the chicken cutlets with 2 teaspoons of the seasoning blend.

Place flour, baking powder, baking soda, and 2 teaspoons of the seasoning blend into a shallow bowl. Whisk to combine.

Place the buttermilk and egg in another shallow bowl, season with 2 teaspoons of the seasoning blend, and whisk to combine.

Spoon schmaltz into a large skillet and melt over medium-high heat until the temperature reaches 325 F to 350 F.

While the schmaltz is heating, coat the chicken in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess.

Next, dip the chicken into the buttermilk mixture, letting any excess drip off.

Return the chicken to the flour and coat. Use your hands to press and adhere the flour to the cutlet.

Working in batches, carefully place the chicken into the hot schmaltz, and fry for 3 to 4 minutes per side or until crisp and cooked through.

Remove the fried cutlets from the skillet and set aside on a wire rack to rest and drain.

Carefully remove ¼ cup of the hot schmaltz from the skillet and transfer to a small saucepan.

Add ⅓ cup of flour to the pan and whisk to combine the roux. Cook the roux over medium heat for 1 minute.

Add the milk and the remaining seasoning (about 1 teaspoon) to the saucepan and whisk to combine with the roux. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the gravy has thickened.

Divide the chicken between plates and top with gravy before serving.

First time to make gravy.  Instructions easy to follow. End product turned out great.  Couldn’t have been happier.

Made this gravy; easy to follow, common ingredients that most people have on hand; and delicious!!!!

Hi Katie,
I just finished making and consuming a breakfast pizza using mostly your recipe.  I did make some changes though.  Usually with a roux I use equal parts of butter and flour.  That being said I used 4TBSP butter and flour. I also added crushed red peppers.  Used the gravy as a base sauce for the pizza.  Topped it with smoked white cheddar, scrambled eggs, bacon, jalapenos, and then a little more cheese on top to prevent the toppings from over cooking.  Cooked the pizza at 525 degrees.  Another great use for a white gravy!  Thanks Katie.  P.S.  oh yeah, i also added in a TBSP of bacon grease.

My Roux didn’t come out :(
Too much butter to flour combo and came out too smooth so texture of gravy was off

First time ever making gravy and it was literally so easy and so good. I did add bacon grease like a tablespoon and it got even better. Definitely will use this recipe again.

I used vanilla almond milk since I can’t have dairy and it came out so good obviously it was sweet but I loved it and it did thicken up. Obsessed with this recipe I love it
