How about authentic Cajun chicken and smoked sausage gumbo?Help me! No more fast food. And restaurants in my area are terrible.
I'm actually a fairly decent cook already. I tend to not measure and use a lot of spices. My husband and his friends tend to compliment my cooking.
But since Im getting help with cleaning, I have energy to consider my ways. Im interested in dishes from Asian, Creole, Hatian, Nigerian, and Southern United States. Soul food.
Tell me about the best food youve ever had. Do you have a signature recipe? I want to knooowww
Im convinced food is the 6th love language.
Thank you! I love cajun foodHow about authentic Cajun chicken and smoked sausage gumbo?
Here's my recipe:
1 cup flour (NOT self-rising)
1 cup olive oil
1 large onion, diced small
1 large bell pepper, diced
4 ribs celery, diced
2 lbs chicken, cut up
1 lb smoked sausage, cut into 1/4" slices
3 quarts of chicken stock
1/3 cup chopped green onions
salt
pepper
red pepper
Mix the flour and oil into an oily paste. Put it into a cast iron skillet at medium heat, constantly stirring. Eventually, it will turn tan, then brown. You're looking for the color to be about like cocoa. When it reaches this stage, dump in the onion, bell pepper, and celery and mix well. Put this mixture into your soup pot. Add the two quarts of chicken stock and at least that much water. Add the chicken and sausage into the mix. Bring to a boil. Add salt, pepper, and red pepper to taste.
When the chicken is fully cooked, add the green onions. Cook 5 more minutes, then turn the heat off. Your gumbo is ready.
Serve over steamed rice in a bowl, and remember it's a soup, not a stew. (I've seen people fill the bowl up with rice and add the gumbo to make it wet. No. It's a soup.
This is normally served with a good potato salad and French bread on the side. YUM!
I'm only 71 years old, so I haven't learned how to cook, yet. I enjoy shepherd's pie, among other things.Help me! No more fast food. And restaurants in my area are terrible.
