This silky gravy starts with savory chicken broth, simmered until steaming and fragrant with onion powder, garlic powder, and dried thyme. A quick whisking technique brings it to that perfect spoon-coating consistency, then a fine-mesh strain gives it a glossy, ultra-smooth finish worthy of any holiday table. Fresh thyme leaves stirred in at the end add a bright, herbaceous lift right before serving. It comes together in minutes on the stovetop, with simple seasoning that lets the broth's flavor shine through. This is a great pick to pour generously over your favorite anti-inflammatory-friendly turkey and sides.

Cornstarch is a refined starch that anti-inflammatory diets limit as a refined carbohydrate, but the small amount (~1 tsp per serving) used to thicken this recipe is likely fine. If you prefer to always avoid corn starch, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
