Ingredients
- 2 cups Chicken stock
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried sage
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the flour to the saucepan.
Whisk the flour and olive oil together to form a smooth paste, known as a roux. Cook for about 2 minutes, stirring continuously, until the roux becomes a light golden color.
Gradually whisk in the chicken stock, ensuring there are no lumps.
Add the onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, thyme, and sage to the saucepan.
Stir the mixture continuously, allowing it to come to a gentle simmer. The gravy will start to thicken.
Once the desired thickness is achieved, stir in the soy sauce for an added depth of flavor.
Remove from heat and taste for seasoning, adjusting the salt and pepper if necessary.
Serve hot over chicken or mashed potatoes. Enjoy your dairy-free chicken gravy!
