MAMA LAINA'S CHICKEN GRAVY (REDUCED-FAT VERSION)

Mama Laina's Chicken Gravy (Reduced-Fat Version) image

When my father had to go on a heart-healthy diet, he begged me to make a gravy that he can eat within his new diet restrictions. He can't stand how flavorless store-bought gravy can be, so i started to experiment. This recipe is the final result. Please enjoy!
