Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Dice the bell pepper, celery, onion, and mince the garlic. Slice the okra and Andouille sausage.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the chicken thighs and cook until browned on both sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from pot and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same pot, add onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

    Stir in the sliced Andouille sausage and return the browned chicken to the pot.

    Add diced tomatoes, chicken broth, okra, bay leaves, and Cajun seasoning. Stir to combine.

  6. 6

    Simmer the Gumbo

    Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer uncovered for about 30 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and flavors are well blended.

  7. 7

    Season to Taste

    Remove bay leaves and season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  8. 8

    Serve the gumbo over cooked rice and garnish with chopped green onions.
