Homemade Turkey Gravy Recipe

Separate the oil from the liquid in the turkey drippings by pouring the drippings into a clear 4-cup measuring cup. Allow the drippings to settle and separate into oil on top and juices on the bottom. Remove 1/4 cup oil using a kitchen syringe; transfer to a saucepan.

Mix flour into the oil in the saucepan; cook and stir over medium-low heat until color changes to a light brown about 5 minutes. Pour 1 cup juices from the measuring cup into flour mixture (roux); cook and stir adding more drippings for a thinner gravy until gravy is heated through and smooth about 5 minutes. Mix chicken broth into gravy; cook and stir until heated through adding more broth for a thinner gravy about 5 minutes.
