Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Pork drippings
- 2 cups Gluten-free chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, finely chopped
Instructions
Collect the pork drippings from your cooked pork roast, ensuring to separate and reserve about 1 cup for the gravy.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the pork drippings and the gluten-free chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water together to create a smooth slurry.
Slowly whisk the cornstarch slurry into the simmering drippings and broth to avoid lumps, ensuring a smooth consistency.
Continue to whisk the mixture consistently until the gravy begins to thicken, which should take about 3-5 minutes.
Season the gravy with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder, adjusting to taste.
Add finely chopped thyme and parsley to the gravy, stirring well to incorporate the herbs evenly.
Reduce the heat to low and allow the gravy to simmer for an additional 5 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Remove from heat and let the gravy sit for a minute before serving. This allows it to thicken slightly more.
Serve hot over your favorite dishes such as roasted pork, mashed potatoes, or gluten-free stuffing.
