This silky gravy comes together fast, built on savory chicken broth simmered with onion powder, garlic powder, and dried thyme until fragrant. A quick cornstarch slurry whisked in slowly gives it that smooth, glossy body that coats the back of a spoon without any lumps or fuss. A finish of fresh thyme leaves adds a bright, herbal note right before serving, and straining it through a fine-mesh sieve makes it silky enough for the fanciest holiday table. It's a simple, savory sauce built entirely on broth and herbs rather than heavy cream or butter, which makes it an easy pour-over for roasted turkey, mashed potatoes, or stuffing. Straightforward, herby, and pantry-friendly, it's a great fit for a Mediterranean-style spread.
