I got this recipe from one of my food mags several years ago. (I believe it was Bon Apitite)The prep time includes boiling the stock and giblets. I usually serve Honey-Brined Turkey with this, as was suggested in the magazine. You can find the recipe here in the Zaar . That turkey and this gravy are delicious served together! Ingredients:
reserved turkey giblets |
6 cups water |
3 1/2 cups canned reduced-sodium chicken broth |
2 carrots, coursely chopped |
1 large onion, halved |
1 stalk celery, chopped |
1 small bay leaf |
5 tablespoons butter |
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1/4 cup whipping cream |
Directions:
1. While your turkey cooks, place giblets in large sauce pan. 2. Add 6 cups water, 3 1/2 cups chicken broth, carrots, onion, celeryand bay leaf. 3. Simmer over medium heatuntil stock is reduced to around 3 cups. 4. (about 2 hours) Strain the stock into a bowl. 5. Chop giblets. 6. Set aside. 7. Melt 5 T butter in large heavy saucepan over medium heat. 8. Add 5 T flour and whisk 2 minutes. 9. Gradually add turkey stock, cream and up to 1 cup of turkey pan juices. 10. Simmer gravy until desired consistency, whisking occasionally. 11. Add chopped giblets. 12. Season to taste with salt and pepper. |
