Cooking Instructions

1. 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.

2. Cook the Vegetables

Add the diced onion, celery, and bell pepper (the 'holy trinity' of Cajun cooking) to the roux. Cook for about 5 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute.

3. Add the Meats

Stir in the sliced Andouille sausage and chicken thighs. Cook for about 5 minutes until the chicken is browned.

4. 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.

5. 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.

6. Serve

Remove the bay leaves. Serve the gumbo hot over cooked white rice and garnish with sliced green onions.
