Instructions

  1. Heat up olive oil in a large pot or dutch oven. Add peppers, onion, celery, garlic, and sausage. Cook over medium-high heat until vegetables become soft.
  2. Remove everything from the pot and set aside. Add butter to the pot. When the butter is melted, scrape all the cooked bits off the bottom of the pot. Then add flour. Cook until the mixture turns a peanut butter brown color, stirring constantly. This is a medium roux. If you want a dark roux, cook for 30-40 minutes until the mixture is the color of milk chocolate.
  3. Add chicken broth, cooked vegetables, sausage, chicken, Cajun seasoning, diced tomatoes with chiles, fire-roasted diced tomatoes, bay leaves, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil.
  4. Reduce heat and simmer for at least 30 minutes. Add in the okra and cook for another 5 minutes. Serve over rice.

Notes

  • To make this gumbo gluten-free, use a gluten-free flour in the place of regular all-purpose flour in the roux. We use Namaste flour from Costco or a homemade flour blend when substituting flour. If you want to avoid making a roux, you can always use filé powder and/or okra to thicken instead.
