Directions:
- You'll need a large cooking pot and 1 frying pan (iron skillets always work best for this).
- Cut up chicken into cubes and start boiling it in the large cooking pot. Let chicken cook until step # 13. May need to keep adding water as it boils down.
- Dice onions, bell pepper, and celery then set aside (a.k.a. the ‘trinity’).
- Heat the 1/2 cup cooking oil in pan then add okra and cook for 15-18 minutes (browned a little bit) then set the okra aside.
- Put the 3 tablespoons of butter in the 2nd large cooking pot, heat it up and start sautéing the onions, bell pepper, and celery (trinity) for 10 minutes. You’ll want to burn it a bit to help add flavor to the gumbo.
- Add the large can of tomatoes along with it’s juices and smash up the tomatoes as you stir.
- Add the 2 cups of chicken stock, 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 tspn. oregano, 1/2 tspn. Garlic powder, and okra, excluding the okra oil.
- Cover and cook for 30 minutes.
- *While that’s cooking make your roux:.
- In frying pan heat 3 tablespoons oil up on med high.
- Add 3 tablespoons of flour, and brown till you get a dark chocolate color , stirring constantly (this is the stinky part of making gumbo, but necessary).
- Once brown, add the 1 1/2 cup of chicken stock to make a gravy. Stir out all the lumps with whisk and set aside.
- After the 30 minutes cooking time is up, add the roux and meat(s) to the pot.
- Add salt and pepper (and Tony Chachere’s Seasoning & Louisiana Hot Sauce).
- Cover again and cook for additional 30 minutes.
- Serve over rice or eat as a soup.
