Gravy Should Never Fail Us

Never Fail Chicken Gravy is super easy to make with or without chicken drippings. This recipe includes a few optional variations depending on what you have on hand. Cornstarch can be used in place of flour to create a wonderful gluten-free gravy. Getting the right texture and seasoning is the key. I do recommend adding at least one or more of the optional ingredients to gain great flavor.
