Ingredients

• Chicken broth, 2 cups
• Better than chicken bouillon, 1 teaspoon
• Low sodium soy sauce, 1 teaspoon
• Onion powder, 1 teaspoon
• garlic powder, 0.5 teaspoon
• Dried thyme, 0.25 teaspoon
• Ground sage, 0.25 teaspoon
• Cold water, 0.25 cup
• Cornstarch, 3 tablespoons
• Cold butter, 1 tablespoon

Kitchen Tools

• Medium pot

Cooking Directions

1. Add the chicken broth, soy sauce, bouillon, and seasonings to a medium pot.
2. Combine the cold water and cornstarch in a small Tupperware with a lid. Shake to combine.
3. Bring gravy to a boil and whisk in the cornstarch mixture. Reduce heat to medium low. Continue to whisk to ensure that it blends in smoothly.
4. Let it gently simmer until its of desired thickness. The longer it simmers, the thicker and more concentrated it will be.
5. Remove from heat. Swirl in one tablespoon cold butter just before serving. This adds a silky, velvety finish.

Notes

1. If a darker color is preferred, add 1-2 drops of Kitchen Bouquet browning and seasoning sauce.
2. If you have drippings: simply add them in along with the chicken broth, which will give you even more gravy. You can also measure out your drippings and top it off with enough broth to make 2 cups total. Bouillon may not be needed if drippings are being used—taste first and add if necessary.
3. Add-ons: Adding sliced onions and smashed garlic cloves are a great way to infuse more flavor into your gravy as it simmers! (Remove at the end before serving.)
