INGREDIENTS

Bases
- 1/4 cup pan drippings from roasted chicken
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups chicken stock or broth

STEPS

Gather all ingredients.

Pour pan drippings into a large measuring cup. Scrape the browned bits into a 2-cup measure.

Skim and reserve fat from drippings.

Pour 1/4 cup of fat into a medium saucepan. If you don’t have enough fat, add butter to make 1/4 cup. Set over medium heat.

Whisk in flour. Continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes, whisking constantly.

Add stock or broth to the remaining drippings in the measuring cup to equal 2 cups.

Slowly whisk in stock mixture until fully incorporated.

Cook, stirring frequently, over medium heat until thickened and bubbly. Stir for an additional minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
