Clean Eating Turkey Gravy

Servings: 10

Ingredients

  • 2 tsps avocado oil or ghee
  • 3 fresh garlic cloves minced
  • 3 medium/large fresh shallots peeled & diced
  • 3 large celery ribs diced
  • 1 large carrot peeled and diced
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt or to taste
  • 2-1/2 cups chicken or turkey bone broth
  • 1/2 cup sweet white wine or your favorite wine
  • 1 Tbsp arrowroot powder cornstarch, or gluten free flour

Optional: about 1/4 cup turkey pan drippings

Instructions

  • Heat your oil in a medium saucepan.
  • Add in chopped veggies and sauté on medium heat until soft and golden, stirring frequently.
  • Add in all of your seasonings and stir well to combine.
  • Pour in the broth and simmer, for about 15 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and use a hand blender (immersion blender) to blend everything into a smooth sauce.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together your wine and arrowroot powder, cornstarch or GF flour. Whisk until its fully dissolved and no clumps are left.
  • Return your pot with the blended veggies to medium heat and whisk in the wine mixture. If you have any pan drippings from your roasted turkey (or chicken), now is the time to add them in.
  • Whisk everything together really well.
  • Allow it to simmer for an additional 5 minutes, or until wine is cooked off and the gravy is thickened, stirring often.
  • Taste and adjust the sea salt and pepper, if needed.
  • If desired, you can blend a bit more to make it as smooth as possible.
  • Enjoy!
