8 servings

  • 0.5 cup butter
  • 1 whole chicken, cut into pieces
  • 3 teaspoons salt, divided
  • 0.75 teaspoon ground black pepper, divided
  • 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 cups chopped yellow onions
  • 2 cups chopped carrots
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Instructions

  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken pieces with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
  • Place 3/4 cup flour in a shallow dish. Dredge chicken in flour, place in the skillet, and brown on all sides. Set chicken aside, and drain skillet, reserving about 1 tablespoon butter.

  • Stir in 3 tablespoons flour, and cook 5 minutes more. Pour in chicken broth, season with cayenne pepper, and remaining salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, and reduce heat to low.
  • Return chicken to the skillet, cover, and continue cooking until chicken juices run clear and gravy has thickened, about 30 minutes.
