KFC Gravy Recipe is simple and quick to make, and so versatile!!

Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp butter (or margarine)
  • 5 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 beef bouillon cube
  • 1 chicken bouillon cube
  • 2 cups water
  • ½ tsp onion powder (optional, for extra flavor)
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat.
  2. Add flour and whisk constantly for about 3–4 minutes until it turns a golden brown color (this creates the roux and gives the gravy its flavor).
  3. Dissolve both bouillon cubes in 2 cups of hot water, then slowly pour the mixture into the saucepan while whisking to avoid lumps.
  4. Add onion powder and black pepper, then continue whisking until the gravy thickens to your liking (about 3–5 minutes).
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  6. Serve hot with mashed potatoes, fried chicken, or biscuits—just like at KFC!

Would you like me to also make a shorter version (like a quick-reference recipe card) for easy saving?
