Categories     Poultry

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 tablespoons unsalted Butter
1 Yellow Onion, Diced
2 Garlic Cloves, Minced
2 tablespoons Fresh Sage, finely chopped
1/3 cup Flour
3 cups Chicken Stock
1 Roasted Turkey pan drippings
1 cup White Wine
1 pinch Kosher Salt & Freshly Ground Pepper

Steps:

  • In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and caramelized, about 15 minutes. Add the garlic and sage and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute more. Sprinkle the flour evenly over the onions and stir until combined. Whisking constantly, slowly pour in the chicken stock. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 5 minutes.
  • Strain, if desired, and set aside to let cool to room temperature. Transfer to a covered container and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • After the turkey is cooked, transfer it to a carving board to rest while you finish the gravy. Place the roasting pan on the stovetop over medium heat and add the wine. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer for 2 minutes, scraping up any browned bits on the pan bottom. Slowly whisk the gravy base into the pan. Simmer until the gravy is smooth and thickened slightly, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and serve hot. Makes about 3 cups (24 fl. oz./750 ml).
