De bereidingswijze

Stap voor stap

  1. 1

    In a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, combine the vegetable oil and all-purpose flour.

    Tip van de kok: Using a heavy pot helps prevent the roux from burning.

  2. 2

    Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, for 25-35 minutes, until the roux turns a rich, dark chocolate brown color. This is the most crucial step, so do not rush it.

    Ongeveer 35 min

    Tip van de kok: The darker the roux, the deeper the flavor of your gumbo. Be careful not to burn it.

  3. 3

    Add the chopped yellow onion, celery stalk, and green bell pepper to the roux.

  4. 4

    Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have softened.

    Ongeveer 10 min

    Tip van de kok: The hot roux will quickly cook the vegetables.

  5. 5

    Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.

    Ongeveer 1 min

    Tip van de kok: Be careful not to burn the garlic.

  6. 6

    Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, starting with a small amount to create a smooth paste, then adding the rest. Continue whisking to prevent lumps.

    Ongeveer 5 min

    Tip van de kok: Adding cold broth to a hot roux can help prevent lumps.

  7. 7

    Stir in the diced tomato, smoked sausage, boneless, skinless chicken thigh, okra (if using), bay leaf, dried thyme, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.

  8. 8

    Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for at least 45 minutes, or up to 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the flavors have melded.

    Tip van de kok: The longer the gumbo simmers, the deeper the flavors will become.

  9. 9

    Remove the bay leaves before serving.

  10. 10

    Serve hot over cooked white rice, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
