delicious gravy recipe for chicken strips. OBTW it should read too instead of to ...TIPS -
The bacon grease and butter do not create the roux I am used to seeing, (it was much thinner) so I added more four. My mistake. I had to add more milk. Just follow the directions as written. It was very good and very tasty. I will surely make it again. -
This was a nice rich gravy that my family enjoyed. Thanks for sharing. Made for What's on the Menu tag.
