Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Roux
In a large heavy pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Gradually whisk in the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture turns a deep brown color, about 20-30 minutes.
Add Meats and Broth
Stir in the Andouille sausage and chicken thighs. Pour in the chicken broth, and add the diced tomatoes, bay leaves, Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.
Simmer
Reduce the heat to low and let the gumbo simmer for about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add Shrimp
Add the shrimp to the pot in the last 5 minutes of cooking, allowing them to turn pink and cook through.
Serve
Remove bay leaves. Serve the gumbo over cooked white rice and garnish with sliced green onions.
