Ingredients

0.25 cup drippings from a roast chicken
2.5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups cold chicken stock, or more if needed
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

Reserve the fat from the drippings. Whisk flour into the remaining drippings in the pan, it will seem dry. Add 2 tablespoons of the reserved fat to combine with the flour.
Toast the flour mixture over low heat until light brown and fragrant, stirring for about 5 minutes.
Gradually add cold chicken stock, about 1/3 cup at a time, whisking each addition until combined. Scrape any browned drippings from the pan into the gravy. Simmer, whisking constantly, until thickened, 8-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Strain for a smooth texture before serving.
