Ingredients:
4 Tbsp. unsalted butter
1 onion chopped
1 carrot peeled and chopped
1 rib celery chopped
¼ cup all-purpose flour
14 oz. chicken broth low sodium
14 oz. beef broth low sodium
1 bay leaf
½ tsp. dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
In a 10-inch skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add carrot, celery, and onion and stir for about 8-9 minutes to allow the vegetables to soften.
Sprinkle flour over vegetables and continue to stir for about 3-4 more minutes until your vegetables are a tan/caramel color.
Pour in beef broth and chicken broth and stir, removing any stuck bits from the bottom of the skillet. Add bay leaf and dried thyme.
Allow your gravy to simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Your gravy should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove any foam that appears around the side of the skillet with a spoon.
Use a strainer and drain the gravy. Discard the vegetables.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
