Hey there! 🌟 For a healthier crinkle chicken gravy, you can try using Greek yogurt or a plant-based milk instead of heavy cream for a creamy texture without the extra calories. 🍶🥛 Swapping out some of the butter for olive oil or a little mashed avocado adds good fats while keeping things rich. 🥑 And if you're watching carbs, you can thicken the gravy with cornstarch or whole wheat flour instead of regular flour. Enjoy your lightened-up gravy without missing out on any flavor! 😋🍽
 
I use a few techniques to make a healthier crinkle chicken gravy. One is replacing half of the butter or oil with a low-sodium chicken broth or adding just enough to get the flour cooked for the roux. 😊🍗 Another trick is adding veggies like cauliflower or carrots. Including them naturally thickens the gravy and adds nutrients. 🥕🥕
