Roasted Chicken Pan Sauce

From the recipe collection of Tara Ippolito.

This roasted chicken pan sauce is the perfect thing to enhance your already delicious chicken dinner and take it to the next level.

I promise that this recipe will change the way you eat chicken forever. Form the very first time that I made this sauce over chicken for my family they were all hooked.

My husband and kids are all big chicken eaters so I try to make it as often as I can. It's affordable, delicious and super easy to make.

Adding this easy to make sauce takes a dish thats already a family favorite and makes it just a little bit more exciting and special.

The best thing about this sauce is that it can be made with any roasted chicken recipe that you'd like. So if you have a favorite that you'd just like to add a little something different to, this recipe is perfect.

This keeps the chicken moist and warm, too. Theres nothing worse than a dry, flavorless chicken. This recipe will make sure you never have to eat one of those again.

This sauce has become a must have on all of our roasted chicken dinner nights its that good.

I hope you give this recipe a try. If you do, I know you'll love it just as much as my family and I do.

Fast. Simple. Delicious.

Roasted Chicken Pan Sauce Ingredients

  • Butter
  • Pan drippings from a roasted chicken
  • Onion
  • Celery
  • Garlic
  • White wine
  • Chicken Broth
  • Salt & pepper
  • Rosemary
  • Thyme

Instructions:

First, roast the chicken and remove it from the baking sheet or roasting pan.

Now, in a large skillet, melt the butter and sauté the celery, onions and garlic for about 5 minutes. The vegetables can be kept in large pieces because we’re going to strain it out later. You don't really even need to peel the garlic if you don't want to.

Now, stir in the flour and let that cook for an additional two minutes stirring frequently.

Then, add all of the drippings from the pan that was left after roasting the chicken. Be sure to scrape everything off and get all of that good stuff in there.

Next, add the white wine and chicken broth.

Now season it with salt, pepper, rosemary and thyme.

After that, turn the heat up to medium high and let the liquid softly boil for about ⅘ minutes.

The sauce is ready once it reduces by half. Add a little butter and stir it in.

Finally strain the sauce into a small sauce pan to easily keep it warm if you need to.

Serve warm over the roasted chicken and enjoy.
