Roasted Garlic Herb Gravy Food

GLUTEN-FREE ROASTED GARLIC AND HERB GRAVY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Peel most of the papery skin away from the garlic head. Place on a cutting board and cut off the top 1 inch. Discard the top. Place the garlic head on a small sheet of foil. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and lightly sprinkle with salt. Tightly wrap and place on a small sheet tray in case it leaks. Roast until golden brown and soft, 55 to 65 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
• Meanwhile in a medium saucepot, combine the chicken stock, thyme, oregano, sage, rosemary and bay leaves. Bring to a simmer and then reduce the heat to low, cover and cook for 30 minutes.
• Add the reserved drippings to the pot. Squeeze in the roasted garlic from the head. Stir and then remove from heat. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl, pushing the garlic through, then pour the strained stock back into a clean pot. Add in some freshly cracked black pepper and more salt, if needed.
• To make the slurry, combine 1/2 cup of the cornstarch with 1/2 cup cold water in a small bowl. Whisk together.
• Bring the stock back up to a simmer over medium. Slowly whisk in the cornstarch slurry and then bring to a boil to thicken. If the gravy looks too loose, make another slurry with the remaining cornstarch and slowly whisk in a little bit at a time until you feel the gravy thicken. Taste for seasoning. Keep warm until needed.

ROASTED GARLIC GRAVY

Steps:

• In a small oven-safe dish, place the garlic and pour on about 1 cm. of water. Put it in the oven or a toaster oven at 350 until the outside is brown and the innermost cloves are soft,25-30 minute Check after 20 minutes to see if you need to add a little more water- it dries up easily!
• Allow the roasted garlic to cool. Ten slice off the top and squeeze the soft cloves from the skin into a small bowl. Mash the garlic with a fork and set aside.
• Toast the flour in a medium-sized pot, over medium heat, stirring constantly, until fragrant but NOT browned. Vigorously stir in the oil, then the garlic, with a wire whisk and cook for a couple of minutes on low heat, stirring often.
• Stir or whisk in the liquid, soy sauce and herbs, stirring till fairly smooth (There'll probably still be chunks of garlic!) Simmer the gravy for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve hot.

HERB-RUBBED TURKEY WITH ROASTED-GARLIC GRAVY

Steps:

• One day ahead:
• Process herbs and garlic in food processor until finely minced. Set aside.
• Rinse turkey inside and out with cold water; pat dry with paper towels. Trim excess fat. Place turkey in large nonreactive bowl. Starting at neck cavity, loosen skin from breast and drumsticks by gently inserting fingers between skin and meat. Sprinkle kosher salt and pepper under and over skin. Then spread garlic-herb rub under skin and gently press skin to adhere. Lift wing tips up and over back; tuck into turkey. Refrigerate at least 8 hours or overnight.
• To roast:
• Let turkey stand at room temperature 1 hour before serving. Set oven rack at lowest position and preheat oven to 350°F. Spread sliced onions on bottom of heavy-bottomed roasting pan and place fitted rack over top. (Or place the turkey directly on bed of onions. They will prevent sticking and flavor drippings.) Brush turkey with grapeseed oil and carefully transfer to rack. Brush one side of double-folded sheet of aluminum foil with grapeseed oil and tent, greased side down, over turkey breast. Place turkey in oven so legs face back of oven and bird, breast side up, faces door. Place wrapped garlic on oven rack.
• Roast 45 minutes. Remove garlic from oven. Remove foil from turkey and turn pan around. Roast until thermometer inserted in thickest part of thigh registers 170°F and juices run clear when thigh is pierced with fork (see note below), about 1 hour 15 minutes. Transfer turkey to platter and reserve pan drippings. Let turkey stand 20 minutes before carving.
• Prepare gravy while turkey rests:
• Pour drippings into 4-cup glass measure, and skim off fat that rises to surface, reserving 1 tablespoon fat (see tip below). Add enough broth to drippings to measure 3 cups.
• Separate roasted garlic cloves. Squeeze pulp into small bowl and mash well with fork. In medium saucepan over medium heat, heat reserved fat. Add garlic and flour, and cook, whisking constantly, until lightly browned, about 30 seconds. Gradually whisk in broth mixture. Bring to boil over high heat, whisking constantly, and remove from heat. Carve turkey and serve with gravy.

ROASTED GARLIC-HERB GRAVY

Steps:

• In the last hour of turkey roasting, scatter the carrots, celery, and garlic in the bottom of the roasting pan.
• In a 3-quart saucepan, bring the stock to a boil over medium heat. Reduce by half.
• When the turkey comes out of the oven, remove the carrots and celery stalks and place them in a blender or food processor. Add the stock and puree until smooth. Add half the garlic cloves, puree, and taste. (Heads of garlic vary in intensity, so it is necessary to check the strength of the sauce as you go). Add more garlic to taste, if desired.
• Stir in the salt and pepper, and just before serving, add the parsley, chives, and savory.

SAVORY HERB PORK ROAST WITH GRAVY

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix sage, garlic salt, ginger and pepper in small bowl. Place roast on rack in foil-lined roasting pan. Brush pork with oil. Sprinkle seasoning mixture evenly over entire roast.
• 2. Roast pork 1 1/2 hours or until desired doneness. Transfer pork to cutting board or serving platter. Cover loosely with foil.
• 3. Pour any pan drippings from roasting pan and water into medium saucepan. Stir in Gravy Mixes. Stirring frequently, cook on medium heat until gravy comes to boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer 1 minute or until slightly thickened. (Gravy will thicken upon standing.) Serve with sliced pork.

ROASTED GARLIC AND HERB PORK ROAST RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven 350°F (180°C). Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Add the garlic to the baking sheet and coat with ½ teaspoon of olive oil. Roast for 10 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool. Once cool enough to handle, mince the garlic.
• Place the Kroger® Boneless Whole Pork Tenderloin in a gallon-size resealable bag. Add the salt, black pepper, thyme, rosemary, sage, garlic powder, minced roasted garlic, Dijon mustard, and ¾ cup olive oil. Shake the bag until pork loin is well coated. Seal the bag and transfer to the refrigerator to marinate for 2 hours, or overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Remove the pork loin from the marinade.
• Heat the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Starting with the fattiest side, sear the pork loin on all sides until light golden brown, 2-3 minutes per side.
• Transfer the seared pork loin to a 9x13" baking dish and cover with aluminum foil. Bake for 40 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for 5 minutes more, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
• Meanwhile, make the gravy: Place the skillet used to sear the pork roast over medium heat. Melt the butter and add the rosemary, thyme, and garlic. Cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Whisk in the flour and cook until the flour turns golden brown in color, about 2 minutes. Deglaze the pan with the white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Cook until reduced by half, about 45 seconds. Add the chicken stock and stir to combine, breaking up any clumps from the flour. Simmer for 3 minutes, or until the gravy thickens. Stir in the salt. Remove the thyme and rosemary sprigs, then strain the gravy through a fine-mesh sieve into a gravy boat or medium bowl. Keep warm until ready to serve.
• Serve the pork roast warm with the garlic, herb gravy, and holiday vegetables of choice alongside.
• Enjoy!

SEASONED GARLIC GRAVY

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, heat butter over medium heat. Add garlic; cook and stir 1 minute. Stir in flour, poultry seasoning and pepper until smooth; gradually whisk in broth. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir until thickened, 1-2 minutes.

GARLIC AND HERB ROASTED CHICKEN WITH MUSHROOM GRAVY

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F In ungreased 12x8" (2 quart) baking dish, combine mushrooms and onion; spread evenly in the bottom of the baking dish.
• Remove and discard giblets and neck (or save for another use) from the chicken body cavity. Rinse chicken inside and out with cold water; drain. Pat dry with paper towels. Rub inside of the chicken cavity with seasoning salt.
• Close neck cavity by bringing loose skin over the opening and holding in place with metal skewer. Twist wing tips under back.
• In small bowl, combine butter, parsley, thyme, rosemary, and garlic; mix well. Spread over chicken and inside the cavity.
• I usually place additional fresh rosemary and thyme sprigs in the cavity before closing. With string, tie legs and tail together. Place the chicken in the baking dish over the mushrooms and onion.
• Bake at 325F for 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Chicken is done when drumstick moves easily up and down and twists in socket, and when chicken is fork-tender and juices run clear. Don't pierce the skin too often or you'll lose some moisture in the breasts.
• Remove chicken from baking dish; place on serving dish or carving board. Cover and let stand 10 minutes before slicing.
• Remove mushrooms (and onion, if desired) into saucepan. Pour pan drippings into 2 cup measuring cup. Remove as much fat as possible from the top. Add enough chicken broth to equal 1 1/2 cups of liquid.
• Mix 1/4 cup water with flour and blend well.
• Over medium heat, add flour mixture to mushrooms, stirring to combine and cook for 2 minutes. Add some of the reserved liquid if necessary to keep from getting too pasty.
• Add remaining reserved liquid to the mushrooms, whisk gently and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat slightly and cook gray until thickened. Season with salt and pepper as needed.
• Notes for garlic lovers: I cut the tops off two garlic heads (use more or less to your individual tastes and/or the amount of potatoes you're making) and place inside the chicken cavity before closing. Then, when making my mashed potatoes, I squeeze the garlic pulp into potatoes with some butter and chicken broth.
