Number of Servings:
Ingredients:
- 8 cups - stock or broth
- 2 cups - chopped green onions
- - cooked rice for serving with
- - desired Cajun seasoning, such as Joe's Stuff or Emeril's Essence
- - file as needed, for serving
- 1 cups - oil
- 1 cups - flour
- 1 - chicken cooked, cut up, de-boned
- 1 1/2 pounds - Andouille sausage
- 4 cups - chopped onions
- 2 cups - chopped celery
- 2 cups - chopped green pepper
- 1 tablespoons - chopped garlic
- 2 - bay leaves
Directions:
1. In a large pan over medium heat, cook 2 cup of onions, 1 cup of celery, and 1 cup of green pepper with the sausage and chicken in a little oil 'til seasoned and lightly brown. Remove from heat.
2. In a separate pot over medium heat, make a roux by combining the 1 cup of oil with 1 cup of flour and cooking, stirring constantly (very important!), until color resembles that of copper or a penny (about 5-10 minutes). Remove from heat.
3. Add remaining 2 cups of onions, 1 cup celery, and 1 cup green pepper as well as the garlic to pan with the chicken and sausage mixture; stir well until combined. Pour hot roux over all of this and stir over medium heat for 1-2 minutes.
4. Gradually stir in liquid and bring to a boil; add bay leaves. Season with Cajun seasoning (lots of it!). Reduce heat to simmer and cook for an hour or more, stirring occasionally. Approximately 10 minutes before serving, add green onions; remove bay leaves.
5. Serve gumbo over rice or without rice, accompanied by French bread.
