Ingredients
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup beef broth
1 cup chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat until fully melted and bubbling.
Whisk in the all-purpose flour to form a smooth roux. Continue whisking constantly for about 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture turns a light golden brown, indicating the flour is cooked.
Gradually pour in the beef broth while whisking continuously to prevent lumps from forming.
Add the chicken broth slowly while continuing to whisk until the mixture is smooth and combined.
Stir in the onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, salt, Worcestershire sauce, and dried thyme.
Bring the gravy to a gentle simmer and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Remove from heat and serve warm over your favorite dishes.
