Extra Virgin Olive Oil Turkey Gravy

Side Dish

Ingredients

1 cup reserved turkey drippings, from Olive Oil Roasted Turkey
1/4 cup Monini Originale Extra Virgin Olive Oil
4 tbsp unsalted butter
1/2 cup all purpose flour
2-3 cups turkey or chicken stock
Salt and pepper, to taste

Preparation

Heat turkey drippings, Monini Originale Extra Virgin Olive Oil, and butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. When the butter is completely melted and the liquid begins to simmer, whisk in flour, stirring continually. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the roux takes on a golden tan color.

Slowly, while continuing to whisk, add in 2 cups of the stock. Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce heat and simmer until the mixture is slightly thickened (adding the remaining stock a few tablespoons at a time, to thin if needed).

Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately with Roasted Garlic, Olive Oil Mashed Potatoes and Olive Oil Roasted Turkey.
