Quick Gravy Recipe

Lightly meaty, flour-thickened chicken broth enriched with cream cheese forms the base for a smooth, herb-flecked sauce. Try it with grilled or roasted chicken, pork, or turkey; meatballs; potpie fillings; mashed potatoes, savory bread pudding, or oven fries.

Hearty Chicken Soup

Hearty Chicken Soup Recipe

The broth in this classic chicken soup simmers without a lid, so it reduces and grows richer. Using a Dutch oven makes the meat a little more tender and juicy.

Green Beans Two Ways Recipe

Instead of just steaming or boiling green beans (or the veggies of your choice), first sauté them in butter and garlic and then simmer them in chicken broth. Fresh herbs and citrus—both zest and juice—give the beans a fresh, vibrant flavor.

Chicken-and-Wild Rice Skillet Casserole Recipe

This rustic one-pot meal, a company's-coming riff on the old-school chicken-and-rice number, is held together by a tangy gravy flavored with country ham and mushrooms. Nutty wild rice helps sop up all the good chicken gravy.

Bacon and Butternut Pasta

Bacon and Butternut Pasta Recipe

Broth, thickened with flour and enriched with crème fraîche, forms the savory sauce in this pasta dish. We like the earthy heartiness of kale, which helps balance the sweetness from the squash.
