Simple Chicken Gravy Recipe

I absolutely LOVE Mashed Potatoes and Gravy.  My problem is that I could never cook either one of them properly.  I like creamy mashed potatoes and a smooth gravy with no clumps.  I perfected this Simple Chicken Gravy Recipe years ago, but could never get the Mashed Potatoes just right… until recently.  Wanna see how my potatoes turned out?  Check out my Creamy Mashed Potatoes Recipe!

I paired my Mashed Potatoes and Chicken Gravy with some cajun broiled chicken.  It was soooo yummy!  Here is the recipe for that: Cajun Chicken with Pomegranate-Mango Chipotle Sauce.
