Gravy:

■ Use a fat separator cup or skim 1/2 cup of the fat off the top of the pan drippings. Reserve the rest of the drippings.

■ Pour the fat into a pot and heat on medium-high.

Whisk in the flour for 2-3 minutes to cook out the flour taste

Pour in the chicken stock while whisking

Then, pour in the remaining pan drippings.

Continue stirring until the gravy thickens; about 3 minutes. (Will thicken more in the oven)

Remove from heat.

Pour gravy on top of the wings.

Cover the pan with foil again.
