Quick and easy gravy you can make just before you carve the turkey.
1. In a large saucepan, melt 1/2 cup butter over medium-low heat.
2. Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon coarse black pepper
3. Slowly add in 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, constantly whisking to combine.
4. After a few minutes, the flour will be well incorporated into the butter. Slowly begin to pour in drippings and/or chicken broth into the pan, constantly whisking.
5. Allow the gravy to cook for several minutes, so that it can thicken up. Serve immediately, or keep on very low heat until you’re ready to serve.
If you want it richer with more turkey taste, scrape up the bits left over in the cooking pan and put them in the 4 cups of turkey stock and pan drippings, whisking them all together with the butter/flour mixture. Instead of chicken stock or broth, I used turkey stock, made from boiling the parts removed from inside the turkey, minus the liver, for the same time as it takes to cook the turkey. I put the heart and gizzards in a food processor and added them to the gravy. Prep time for the recipe by it self is 5 min prep time and 10 min cook time. The way I did it, including making the turkey stock and processing the parts, the prep time was a few minutes longer and the cooking time was obviously much longer
