This savory turkey gravy comes together with pan drippings and rich chicken broth, thickened to a silky, spoon-coating consistency with a simple cornstarch slurry instead of a flour-based roux. Onion powder, garlic powder, and dried thyme build savory depth, while a scattering of fresh thyme at the end adds a bright, herbaceous finish. Straining it through a fine-mesh sieve gives you a glossy, restaurant-smooth texture with zero lumps. There's nothing here but pure, savory turkey flavor — no sweeteners hiding in the mix — making it a solid pick for an added sugar free holiday table. It's quick enough to pull together while the rest of dinner rests, and it pours beautifully over turkey, mashed potatoes, or stuffing alike.

Pour the skimmed pan drippings into a medium saucepan. Add the chicken broth, onion powder, garlic powder, and dried thyme. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is steaming and fragrant, about 3–4 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and cold water until completely smooth with no lumps.
