Chicken and Sausage Gumbo is the ultimate Louisiana comfort food! This gumbo starts with a dark roux as its base. Once the roux is ready and combined with water, add sautéed chopped green bell pepper, onion and celery to the pot. Sear the chicken and sausage, too, before throwing them in, and letting the gumbo cook low and slow for hours.
Instructions to make Chicken and Sausage Gumbo:
- Cook sausage in a cast iron pot over medium heat, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes or until browned. Drain on kitchen roll, reserving drippings in pan. Set sausage aside.
- Brown chicken in drippings in the same pan over medium heat for 5 minutes or so. Remove to kitchen roll, reserving drippings in the pan. Set chicken aside.
- Add enough oil to drippings in same pan to measure 1/2 cup. Add flour, and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, 20 to 30 minutes, or until roux is chocolate coloured. Be careful not to burn it! Starting again is heartbreaking 😫
- Stir in onion, pepper, and celery; cook, stirring often, 10 minutes or until tender. Stick your head in at this point for the best smell ever!
- Gradually add 2 litres hot water. The mixtures seizes up at first because of the roux but will continue to loosen. Once all the water has been added, bring the mixture to a boil. Add chicken, garlic, bay leaves, Worcester, Creole seasoning, thyme and paprika.
- Reduce heat to low, and simmer, stirring occasionally for an hour. Remove chicken and let it cool.
- Add sausage back in and cook for a further 30 minutes.
- Stir in most of the sliced green onions and cook for a further 20 minutes. Meanwhile, shred the chicken off the bone and add back in the the gumbo with 5 minutes to go.
- Discard the bay leaves. Serve with rice, remaining green onions and a few good glugs of Tabasco on top.
Andouille sausage and chicken are two common proteins in gumbo, but not the only ones by a long shot. Then there's gumbo z'herbes, a Lenten version made with an acre's worth of sundry greens and not a scrap from the animal kingdom. Speaking of vegetables, some gumbos, Creole ones, have tomato; others, Cajun ones, do not. A symbol of Creole cooking, gumbo is ubiquitous in homes and restaurants across Louisiana. Andouille sausage and file powder make this chicken-and-sausage gumbo a classic and, as in any good gumbo, a deep, rich roux thickens the stew.
