Chicken and Sausage Gumbo image

This is the BEST gumbo I have ever had. (No okra!) Hearty and classic. If you can't find andouille, use a good smoked sausage or kielbasa. The gravy is so rich, have lots of bread to sop it up. A friend gave me this recipe, so I don't know the origin.

Time 1h45m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup flour
2 large onions, chopped
2 bell peppers, chopped
4 celery ribs, chopped
4 -6 cloves garlic, minced
4 quarts chicken stock
2 bay leaves
2 teaspoons creole seasoning
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
salt and pepper
1 large chicken, cut into pieces
2 lbs andouille sausages, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1 bunch scallion, tops only,chopped
2/3 cup fresh parsley
file powder

Steps:

  • Season the chicken with salt, pepper and Creole seasoning.
  • Brown quickly.
  • Brown the sausage, pour off fat and reserve meats.
  • In large, heavy pot, heat the oil and cook the flour in the oil over medium to high heat, stirring constantly, until the roux reaches a dark reddish-brown color, almost the color of coffee or milk chocolate.
  • If you want to save time, or prefer a more New Orleans-style roux, cook it to a medium, peanut butter color, over lower heat if you're nervous about burning it.
  • Add the vegetables and stir quickly.
  • This cooks the vegetabels and also stops the roux from cooking further.
  • Continue to cook, stirring constantly, for about 4 minutes.
  • Add the stock, seasonings, chicken and sausage.
  • Bring to a boil, then cook for about one hour, skimming fat off the top as needed.
  • Add the chopped scallion tops and parsley, and heat for 5 minutes.
  • Serve over rice in large shallow bowls.
  • Accompany with a good beer and lots of hot crispy French bread.
