Make Ahead Turkey Gravy

Ingredients

• 2 turkey wings (1-1/2 to 2 pounds)

• 2 medium onions, quartered

• 2 cartons (32 ounces each) reduced-sodium chicken broth, divided

• 2 medium carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces

• 2 celery ribs with leaves, cut into 2-inch pieces

• 4 fresh thyme sprigs

• 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

• 1 tablespoon butter

• 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

1. Place turkey wings and onions in a greased 13x9-in. baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 1-1/4 hours, turning once.

2. Transfer wings and onions to a Dutch oven.

3. While 13x9-in. pan is still warm, carefully add 2 cups broth. Using a spatula, gently scrape any brown bits off bottom of pan; pour into Dutch oven with wings.

4. Add 4 cups broth, carrots, celery and thyme to Dutch oven.

5. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, about 45 minutes.

6. Strain; discard wings and vegetables. (Can be made ahead to this point and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.)

7. Skim fat from cooking liquid. Add enough remaining broth to measure 3-1/2 cups.

8. In a large saucepan, whisk flour and remaining broth until smooth. Gradually stir in cooking liquid.

9. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in butter and pepper.

10. Enjoy
