  • 7. Add 1 bunch green onion, parsley and salt and pepper, to taste. Simmer 20 more minutes.
  • 8. Serve over rice and allow people to add hot sauce, green onion and file, to taste.

This gumbo is amazing! I used chicken thighs instead of the breasts and it was still so flavorful. The andouille sausage gives it a nice kick. I will definitely be making this again.
