Simple Chicken Gravy

Recipe by John
I cook by instinct, and this gravy is good. After roasting your chicken, remove it to a platter and follow these directions.
Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup water, or as needed
  • 1 (3 pound) roasted chicken (drippings from chicken)
Directions:
  1. Add water to the chicken drippings to make about 1 1/2 cups of liquid in the bottom of the roaster.
  2. Whisk water into the flour until it is thick, but not pasty. Whisk the flour/water mixture into the drippings, and put the roaster on the stove over medium heat. Stir constantly until mixture is thickened and bubbly. Add salt and pepper to taste.
