easycook.com~Thanksgiving-Easy Gravy

Note: For a flavor boost, decrease the broth to 6 cups, and add 2 cups of Sauvigon Blanc or other dry white wine to the onion mixture with the broth and turkey drippings in Step 2.

1    cup minced onion
1    teaspoon fresh thyme leaves or dried thyme
½   teaspoon chopped fresh sage leaves
          or dried rubbed sage
2    tablespoons butter or olive oil
2    quarts fat-free chicken broth
8    to 10 tablespoons cornstarch
      Fat-skimmed drippings from oven roasted turkey
      Salt and pepper

1. In a 3-4 quart pan, combine onion, thyme, sage, and butter. Stir often over high heat until onion is lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes.

2. In a small bowl, mix about ½ cup broth with the cornstarch until very well blended. Pour remaining broth and turkey drippings into pan with the onion mixture. When it boils, pour in the cornstarch mixture, a portion at a time, until gravy is as thick as desired. Add salt and pepper to taste.
