This silky gravy comes together fast, built on real turkey pan drippings and rich chicken broth for deep, savory flavor. A cornstarch slurry whisked in slowly is the secret to a glossy, perfectly thickened texture without any lumps, while onion powder, garlic powder, and thyme add warmth and depth. Straining it through a fine-mesh sieve at the end gives you that smooth, restaurant-worthy pour every time. It's an easy make-ahead component for your holiday spread, ladled generously over turkey, mashed potatoes, or stuffing. Since the whole recipe is built from broth, drippings, and simple seasonings, it's a naturally solid choice for a lactose free table without sacrificing any of that classic, comforting gravy taste.

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.
