Cook Time 5 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 cup Broth/Stock Your choice - chicken, beef, turkey, or vegetable. We use chicken.
  • 2-4 Bouillon Cubes Your choice - chicken or beef. We use chicken. Use more for a stronger flavor.
  • 4 tbsp Unsalted Butter
  • ¼ cup Flour

Seasonings To Taste

  • Rosemary
  • Onion Powder
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Sage
  • Garlic Powder
  • Thyme

Instructions

  • Add the bouillon cubes to the broth/stock and heat.
  • In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and half of the seasonings and cook for 1 minute, creating a roux.
  • Slowly whisk in the broth to the roux, then heat to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring often, until gravy has thickened to liking.
  • Add remaining seasonings to taste, whisking in. Serve immediately.
