Creamy Tarragon Gravy

YIELDS: 4 1/2 cups

COOK TIME: 15 Min

Usually gravy is just "there," but not this one. Uh uh! With its distinctive flavor of tarragon, our easy Creamy Tarragon Gravy gives plain roast turkey the flavor lift it needs to make it spectacular.

What You'll Need

Pan drippings from roasted turkey
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Chicken broth
2 teaspoons dried tarragon
1/2 cup heavy cream

What to Do

Remove cooked turkey from roasting pan. Pour pan drippings into a 4-cup measuring cup and skim off 1/2 cup of the fat (the clear oily liquid) that rises to the top.
Pour the 1/2 cup fat into a saucepan and whisk in 1/2 cup flour. Cook over medium heat until bubbly, stirring constantly.
Skim off and discard any additional fat from the drippings in the measuring cup and add enough chicken broth to make 4 cups of liquid total.
Pour drippings mixture into saucepan, reduce heat to low then stir in the tarragon and heavy cream, and continue cooking gravy until heated through, stirring constantly.

Why not use turkey broth instead of chicken broth. I don't like every recipe I see using chicken broth. I always cooked very well without using it. Lots of turkey broth when yoiu cook a turkey.
