White Wine Turkey Gravy

Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 20 minutes
Total time: 30 minutes
Yield: ~3 cups of gravy

INGREDIENTS

• 6 Tbsp. salted butter

• Drippings from whole roasted turkey (weighing anywhere from 10-15 lbs)

• ½ medium onion, finely chopped

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 Tbsp. fresh sage, finely chopped

• 1 Tbsp. fresh thyme, finely chopped

• 1/3 cup all-purpose flour

• 3 cups chicken broth

• 1 cup dry white wine

• Squeeze of lemon juice

• Fresh cracked black pepper, to taste

DIRECTIONS

In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Strain the drippings through a fine mesh sieve, and add to the melted butter. Add the onions and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring often. Add garlic, sage and thyme and sauté for another 2 minutes, until fragrant. Add the flour, stir, and continue to cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring often. I like to use a whisk to avoid lumps. Add the broth and the wine, bring to a boil and cook for 10 minutes or until thickened, stirring often.

Add lemon juice and season with fresh cracked pepper. Serve hot.
