Chicken and Andouille Gumbo

3/4/2025

0 Comments

 
Ingredients
4 quarts Chicken Stock
​
1 cup vegetable oil1 cup all-purpose flour
3 medium onions, chopped
2 ribs celery, finely chopped
3 tablespoons minced garlic
1 green bell pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, plus more to taste
1 1/2 pounds andouille sausage, cut into 1⁄3-inch-thick rounds
1 1/2 lb cooked chicken
3/4 lb thawed or fresh okra
1 1/2 teaspoons salt, plus more to taste
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 bay leaf
1 bunch green onions, thinly sliced
1/3 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Cooked white rice, for serving
Louisiana hot sauce, for serving

Directions
With the oil and flour, make a roux the color of milk chocolate 

Immediately add the onions, celery, garlic, bell pepper, cayenne, and sausage, and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Add 3 quarts broth to the roux mixture along with the salt, black pepper, and bay leaf, and bring to a gentle simmer. Continue to simmer, skimming any foam or excess oil that comes to the top, until the sauce is flavorful and thickened to the desired consistency, and any trace of floury taste is gone, about 2 hours.

Add the chicken, green onions, okra, and parsley to the gumbo and continue to simmer about 30 minutes longer. Don’t stir too much or the chicken will fall apart into shreds. Adjust the thickness, if necessary, by adding more broth. Adjust the seasoning with salt and cayenne as needed.

Serve the gumbo in shallow bowls over hot white rice. Have the hot sauce at the table for guests to use to their liking.

Note: In Louisiana, everyone has his or her own preference when it comes to gumbo thickness. This one is about middle of the road, which is the way I prefer it—not too brothy and not too thick. It is easy to adjust the thickness by using less broth for a thicker gumbo and/or adding more for a thinner consistency.
