Worthy of a Special Occasion

Yield: MAKES: About 2 1/2 cups; 8 to 10 servings

Ingredients

  • Pan drippings from guajillo-tamarind turkey
  • About 1 cup fat-skimmed chicken broth (if needed)
  • 1/4  cup  (1/8 lb.) butter
  • 3  fresh poblano chiles (8 oz. total), roasted, peeled, seeded, and chopped
  • 3  tablespoons  all-purpose flour
  • Salt and fresh-ground pepper

Preparation

1. Skim fat from pan drippings. Measure drippings and add chicken broth, if needed, to make 2 cups liquid.

2. In a 3- to 4-quart pan over medium heat, melt butter. Add chiles and stir for 1 minute. Turn heat to medium-low and whisk in flour until well combined.

3. Whisking chile mixture constantly, slowly pour dripping mixture into pan. Whisk until gravy boils and thickens, 6 to 8 minutes. If gravy is thicker than desired, add a little more broth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour into a gravy boat; serve hot.

This gravy was delicious and the turkey with guajillo tamarind glaze (the meal it was meant to accompany) was top notch, including the chorizo cornbread stuffing.12/19/08
