Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Roux
In a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Gradually whisk in the flour and stir continuously for about 15-20 minutes until the mixture reaches a dark caramel color. Be careful not to burn it.
Add the Meats
Stir in the sliced Andouille sausage and chicken thighs. Cook for about 5 minutes until the chicken is browned.
Add Liquids and Seasonings
Pour in the chicken broth and add the diced tomatoes, bay leaves, thyme, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Simmer the Gumbo
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. The gumbo should thicken and the flavors meld.
Serve
Remove the bay leaves. Serve the gumbo hot over cooked white rice and garnish with sliced green onions.
