Gravy...from scratch

Of course, I haven't made the turkey yet, but here's how you would do it.
Pan drippings from 1 roasted turkey
2 tbsp butter
1/4 cup flour
1 shallot
1-2 cups chicken broth
Salt & pepper to taste

Once that beautiful turkey comes out of the oven, take it out of the roasting pan and let it rest.
Place the roasting pan over two burners on your stovetop and add the butter. Once the butter is melted, add the shallot and saute until soft - about 3 minutes. Whisk in the flour for about 1-2 minutes to cook off the raw flour taste.
Slowly add in the chicken broth whisking to remove any lumps. (You may not use all of the broth - that is OK.) Once the gravy starts to thicken, turn off the heat, season with salt & pepper and transfer to a gravy boat. Serve hot.

*Thanksgiving wouldn't be Thanksgiving if everything wasn't smothered in gravy. And making gravy from the turkey drippings is deeelish. It really takes no time at all to make a good homemade gravy, so why bother with the packaged stuff? You could even cook up some sausage to throw into the gravy to make it that much more flavorful. Give this a try, you will not be disappointed.
