  • About

The addition of fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, and parsley brighten the flavor of this gravy. Vary the herbs according to your preference; thyme, sage, and tarragon, or a combination, also work well.

Ingredients

  • Quick Turkey Stock, 7 cups, or 7 cups high-quality, reduced-sodium chicken stock

Method

Place the roasting pan used to roast the bird, with any pan juices and vegetables, over 2 burners and turn the heat to medium-high. Add all but ¼ cup of the stock to the pan and bring to a brisk simmer. Stir to deglaze the pan, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom, about 5 minutes.
