Whenever I am pressed for time or just do not feel like cooking, a store-bought rotisserie chicken always saves the day! To make the meal a bit more "homemade", I usually whip up this tasty gravy. It is very easy make and doesn't require pan drippings.
Shallot Gravy with Sherry
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup thinly sliced shallots
1/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/3 cup dry sherry
1 1/2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add shallots and cook, stirring for 10 to 12 minutes or until butter and shallots are deep golden brown. Stir in flour, salt, thyme and pepper. Continue to cook and stir for an additional 1 minute. Gradually stir in sherry and chicken broth. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low. Cook and stir about 5 minutes longer or until the gravy is thickened and the flavors blended.
