This is for GLORIA. You used a rotisserie chicken, fine, but you have to READ the instructions and remember you were supposed to cook raw chicken ia a lot of WATER that became the BROTH for your gumbo, not a little can of broth. You always add veggies to the ROUX to brown first in making gumbo, THEN you add the 2 quarts or so of broth you were supposed to cook the chicken in!

Ok, one can use canola oil as well as butter to make the roux. pre cut the onions, celery, bell peppers. At the magic moment that the roux looks like a dark peanut butter, add the onions to cool it quickly and stop it from burning. carmelize then add the rest of the trinity. add water after this is cooked a bit then add the chicken. OUr family cooks the chicken with the bones to add more flavor. We also crack an egg for each person into the end of the cooking or serve the gumbo with rice and potatoe salad in the gumbo.

This was a great base recipe for gumbo. The beauty of making gumbo is that you can make it all your own. I PERSONALLY would NEVER make gumbo with anything other than andoullie sausage and if you want to serve some really authentic gumbo try serving over potato salad instead of rice. The tomato's are strictly for a creole style gumbo and NOT a cajun gumbo so I never use them either. Have fun and experiment with things. It's hard to mess up gumbo when you have a great roux.

I loved this, though the rest of the family (3 kids and husband) not so enthusiastic. I loved the flavor. Actually didn't use the chicken. Used all fresh vegetables. Next time I might actually leave out the sausage - I thought it was great without it and don't need the calories.

Oh yum, yum, yum yum! It took quite a while to make, but is very yummy! Here are my changes: First I chopped the sausage and cooked it in a skillet, reserving the grease in a measuring cup. I then cooked the chopped peppers, onions, and celery in the same pan until soft, the placed in a separate bowl. Next I cooked bacon to render the fat and poured the fat into the measuring cup until it reached 1/2. After removing the bacon, I poured back into the skillet the grease and flour and cooked to make roux for 20 minutes. While that was cooking, I cooked 8 chicken thighs in a stock pot with one small can of chicken broth. I removed the thighs when done, then cut them into pieces and put with the sausage and vegie mixture. When the roux was ready, I poured the chicken broth into the roux and stirred, then added the meat and vegie mixture. I added Zateran's creole seasoning to taste. I did not have the okra, so I added one can of red beans and a bit of corn for color. Stir well and serve!
