Pulled Chicken in Cream Gravy Sauce
1 whole chicken
½ cup half and half
¼ cup flour
1 tsp. fresh thyme leaves
1 tsp. fresh rosemary leaves, chopped
Chicken:
1. Thaw chicken.
2. Roast chicken in pan in oven at 350 degrees for 1½-2 hours or until internal temperature is 170 degrees.
3. Let chicken cool and pull meat off from carcass. Save drippings and fat.
Cream Gravy Sauce:
1. Heat drippings from pan with the half and half and fresh herbs until it simmers.
2. Create a roux in a separate pan by heating fat and gradually adding flour while constantly whisking. (For those of you who are new to making a roux, check out this article: http://allrecipes.com/howto/making-roux/)
3. Whisk the roux into the drippings mixture and simmer until it’s thick like gravy, about 5 minutes.
