Easy Chicken Gravy

If you need to make a big batch of good ole easy chicken gravy and you don’t have any chicken drippin’s on hand, this is the way to go. Hands down, the best fast gravy you can make! I wasn’t shy when I went to pouring when I made a chicken sandwich, either. It’s my take on a French dip, but using chicken and delicious gravy instead.

Chicken and Gravy Sandwiches

This easy chicken gravy is good on just about anything. Pour it over chicken-fried steak. Or over fried chicken. Speaking of fried chicken. if you have a charcoal grill, you just have to try my Vortex fried chicken!

I also make an outstanding turkey gravy for Thanksgiving. It’s a lot more work, but oh, is it ever worth the time.

This recipe is based on a recipe from Kittencal.

Grilled Jamaican Jerk Chicken Sandwiches

Man oh man, these grilled Jamaican jerk chicken sandwiches disappeared fast. I used my preferred chicken meat, thighs, instead of breasts, but you can certainly use white meat instead. I would recommend butterflying the breasts or just cutting them thin (and to a consistent thickness so they cook evenly). No matter what you use, these sandwiches are nicely spiced, crazy tender and perfectly moist. I wouldn’t change a thing about them.

Grilled Jamaican Jerk Chicken Sandwiches

I used some The Shizzle jerk marinade. It is my favorite. They also make a hot version that I love (it is called Voodoo Hot for a reason!). Their marinade is what makes these grilled Jamaican jerk chicken sandwiches soooo good.

Also try my grilled Malibu chicken sandwiches.
