A Cool front pass through today so my wife cooked a gumbo getting down to 55 tonight. Lol.
1 whole chicken cut up
1 onion
1 bell pepper
3 links of smoked sausage
3 stalks of celery
4 big table spoons of roux
3 cups of white rice cooked
Here we can buy roux already made. To make it... In a frying pan and a lil vegetable oil to med. heat add a lil flour and stir till dark brown color add flour or oil as needed to form a paste. Stir constantly til dark
In a big pot (stock pot) bring 4 cups of water to a boil then add roux (about 4 table spoons) stir till roux is melted let boil slow for 30 min. Add cut up sausage now.
After 30 min. To an hour add chicken and other ingredients. Once water comes ba to a steady boil cook for 45 min. And your done.
Pour over white rice and enjoy!
Add salt and red pepper to your taste. Cajuns like it spicy. And we don't measure seasoning lol.
Keep water level over chicken during cooking.
