Rich, savory, and perfect for pouring over turkey, this turkey gravy adds depth and flavor to every holiday meal. A must-have on any Thanksgiving table!

Ingredients

  • giblets, neck and liver from turkey, (optional the piece next to the cavity of the turkey called the tail fat)
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 stalks celery, chopped
  • 2 1.2 oz packages dry turkey gravy mix
  • 1 pinch black pepper
  • 2 32 oz low sodium chicken broth

Instructions

  • In a large saucepan on medium high heat, add oil, onion and celery and cook for 3 minutes.
  • Add gravy mix, black pepper, giblets, turkey neck and liver.
  • Pour in chicken broth and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and let it simmer for 1.5 hours.
  • NOTE: Remove the liver and giblets after 10 minutes of simmering and place in ice water bath for 5 minutes and remove from water and set aside.
  • When done, strain broth into a liquid measuring cup.
  • You can chop the liver and the gizzards and put it back into the broth or discard them. I personally like to include them.
