No silly. Accent. I sprinkle it in scotch it's so awesome.

Yeah, Accent is the bomb.  Love MSG.  It's what makes Chick-fil-A so good!

Just like the fat chick at the end of the bar, I'm not going to hit that. Try harder next time.

But I've been making eyes at you all night, sugar.

Get the grilled chicken.  Has no MSG, or flavor, either.

From your posting history, I'm pretty sure you live on recycled cardboard and pecans. Your culinary opinions are suspect.

I like flavorful foods, something about the seasoning chikfila uses tastes sweet to me and that's what I don't like.  I don't want sweet chicken.

If you wet the cardboard with a little bit of water and then roll it in the pecan pieces, the pecans will stick and you can eat them together.  It's delicious.

I've had that before. Just terrible. Usually they come around this time of year...

Good points.  Seriously, if you ever get dragged to CFA, then get the grilled chicken sammich, nuggets or the wrap.  Those really do taste pretty good.  Grilled chicken really is about the only thing there with no MSG.  I found that out reading their website menu.

Gravy is easy!

1 Tbsp fat
1 - 1 1/2 Tbsp flour (1 for thinner, 1 1/2 for thicker)
1 cup liquid
Season to taste

Melt fat over medium heat, add flour and whisk smooth, add liquid a little at a time and whisk thoroughly until smooth after each addition.  Keep whisking after all liquid is added, add seasoning and bring gravy to boil for 1 minute. Serve.

@RoosGirl

I’m making this tonight.  Thanks, Roos!

I've found I have better luck when I whisk the flour (or cornstarch) into the liquid, then whisk it into the hot oil, to prevent lumping.  And when they say "Season to taste," that means a crapton of black pepper (Frank would use Accent here).

No! No! No!  You heat the oil up then sprinkle the flour in as you stir. Brown the flour then add liquid and season to taste!

Browning the flour does make for a more interesting taste, but it makes working it in a little more tricky.  Depends on what the meat is.

Agreed.  It may not thicken properly.

Nah....I make a roux paste with unsalted butter and flour, then add the liquid slowly and whisk it, as other people had mentioned.  My cooking skills are less than world class and this method has always worked for me.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

My "Season to taste" means moderate salt anf pepper and a crapton of garlic powder.
