JUSTIN WILSON'S GUMBO
I stumbled upon a video of his tv show. "You know why de shicken cross de road, haaah? Really, to run away from dem Cajuns, I tell you dat right now, cause Cajun will eat mos' any-ting, an dey love to cook shicken." Cooking time is approximate since he says to "cook it a long time"...Id say 2 hours or more

CHICKEN & SAUSAGE: JUSTIN WILSON STYLE
"Woooo-weeee"!!! (You would have to know him). Very simple to make and easy to freeze (before final cooking), to make for an extremely quick and delicious dinner. You will love it!!! As Justin would say... "I Garrrronnnnntteee It"!!! (You would have to know him). Enjoy! Edited: One reviewer suggested cutting the rice down to 3 cups and the chicken broth down to 6 cups... I would tend to agree, so the recipe has been updated. I just make batches upon batches of this to serve to roughly 50+ people at a time, either to take to the local home-less men that stay in the church basement once a week in town, or to our county's battered women & childrens shelter. So yes, I guess I do feed a lot of "starving students", and I am kinda stingy with the meats (I'm not rich). So you can use a 8 cup broth to 4 cup rice ratio, if need be. So just use your own judgement call on the amounts you decide to use. Great thanks to everyone who have tried this.

- Add the cubed chicken, sprinkled with Cajun seasoning, and brown it until almost cooked thru, then add sliced smoked sausage (its pre-cooked).
- Add the sliced onions, green bell peppers (I sometimes use a mix of green and red, depending what I have on hand), and celery (if using) and saute for 2 minutes.
- Add the rice, chicken broth, salt, cayenne pepper (and any additional Cajun seasoning to taste).
- Bring to a low boil, reduce heat to a low simmer and cover. (Extra broth may be needed toward the end of cooking).
- Simmer for approx 20 minutes, or until rice is tender.
- Stir once thru-out cooking time, but keep lid closed and make sure not to scorch the bottom).
- Check for done-ness by tasting it! If the rice is cooked and the chicken isn't pink on the inside, it's done.
- Sprinkle on a little fresh, chopped parsley and a pinch of "Gumbo File" after plating, (if desired). Serve and enjoy!

Tips:
- Use a variety of meats. This gumbo recipe calls for chicken and sausage, but you can also use other meats, such as shrimp, crab, or beef.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables. The recipe calls for the holy trinity (celery, onion, and bell pepper), but you can also add other vegetables, such as okra, tomatoes, or corn.
- Make sure to use a good quality stock. The stock is the base of the gumbo, so it's important to use a good quality stock. You can use chicken stock, vegetable stock, or even seafood stock.
- Let the gumbo simmer for a long time. The longer the gumbo simmers, the more flavorful it will be. Simmer the gumbo for at least 1 hour, or up to 2 hours.
- Serve the gumbo with rice. Gumbo is traditionally served with rice. You can use white rice, brown rice, or even dirty rice.
Conclusion:
Chicken and sausage gumbo is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. This recipe is easy to follow and can be made with a variety of different meats and vegetables. So next time you're looking for a comforting and flavorful meal, give this chicken and sausage gumbo a try.
