Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 3 pounds chicken, thighs
  • 6 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 3/4 cup finely chopped red pepper
  • 3/4 cup finely chopped green pepper
  • 1 onion (large), finely chopped
  • 2 celery ribs, finely chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 2 cups chicken broth

  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

Container:Dutch oven
Directions
PREP
1 hr
COOK
1 3/4 hrs
  • Mix the Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl. Use half the seasoning mixture to rub over the chicken and set the remaining seasoning aside.
  • Heat two tablespoons of canola oil to a Dutch oven and add the chicken; brown the chicken and then remove from pan.
  • Add the remaining two tablespoons of oil to the pan and stir in the flour until well blended. Cook on low to medium-low for about 30 minutes or until flour mixture is browned. Watch carefully so that it does not burn.
  • Add the onion, peppers, and celery to the flour mixture and cook just until vegetables are tender; stir while cooking. Add the garlic and continue to cook for another minute.
  • Slowly add the water and stock, stirring to mix thoroughly. Add the sausage, Worcestershire sauce, bay leaves, chicken, and remaining seasoning mixture. Bring everything to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook until chicken is very tender, approximately 1 hour.
  • Remove the chicken and let it set to cool a little before removing meat from the bones. When cool enough to handle, remove meat and shred; add back shredded chicken back into the soup.
  • Heat the soup until everything is heated thoroughly. Serve over rice.

"My wife made this for me this weekend. She had never made gumbo but we had eaten it down south last year and enjoyed it so she wanted to give it a try. I thought it turned out great. Had a lot of flavor and texture to it. I don't like rice but she made me try the gumbo over rice. It was actually very good with the rice. Hope she makes this again soon."
