KFC Gravy Recipe is Simple and Quick to Make, and So Versatile!!

by

Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon white pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt (plus more to taste)
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules (or adjust to taste)

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
  2. Add the flour and whisk continuously for 2–3 minutes until it forms a smooth, golden-brown roux.
  3. Stir in the onion powder, white pepper, and sea salt.
  4. Gradually add the chicken broth and water while whisking to prevent lumps.
  5. Add the chicken bouillon granules and continue to whisk until the mixture thickens, about 3–5 minutes.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  7. Serve hot over mashed potatoes, chicken, or fries.

If you want, I can also give you a copycat version that tastes even closer to real KFC gravy using a little beef broth for depth. Would you like me to do that?
