Add the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce to a simmer and simmer until the sauce thickens (5-10 minutes). An easy way to test if the gravy is done is by coating the back of a spoon and pulling your finger through the gravy. If the trail created doesn’t break, the gravy is at the right consistency.
