If you haven’t tried the classic Chicken Gravy, you are truly missing out. It’s such a wonderful recipe that is loved by all who have tried it. In the Ukrainian/Russian culture, serving the gravy over mashed potatoes is a must. Unlike the traditional brown gravy in America, the gravy I grew up with is a meal in itself. It typically has meat (chicken or beef), with vegetables, it’s very thick and filling.
