  • 1 3/4 cups cooking oil
  • 2 1/2 cups of flour
  • 3 cloves garlic-minced
  • 1 cup celery-chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups onion-chopped
  • 1 cup bell peppers-chopped
  • 2 pounds cajun sausage-sliced
  • 1 1/2 gallons hot water. Better if use chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons bottled brown bouquet sauce
  • 1 tablespoon worestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons gumbo file'
  • 3 tablespoons salt
  • 3 tablespoons pepper
  • 3 chickens-cut up in frying pieces
  • 1/2 cup parsley-chopped
  • 1 cup green onions-chopped

Method

  1. Begin by making roux with equal parts flour and oil.
  2. Stir over fire until dark brown.
  3. Add garlic, celery, bell pepper and onion. Set aside.
  4. In another skillet, fry sliced sausage. Add sausage to roux mixture.
  5. Pour water (chicken broth) and bouquet sauce into large pot.
  6. Add roux mixture, worcestershire, gumbo file', salt and pepper.
  7. Let boil for about 20 minutes.
  8. Brown cup-up chicken in oil.
  9. Add fried pieces of chicken, parlsey and green onions to pot.
  10. Cook for 45 minutes.
  11. Serve over rice.



Note: For the chickens, I buy a the equal amount of fried chicken from Popeye's, like a family pack. For you people that don't have a Popeye's, use Church's Chicken or KFC. If neither one is around, try a rotisserie chicken, plain. Nothing crazy like lemon/herb. Usually it is cheaper, in the long run, and cuts some of your cook time down. You may also add peeled shrimp, 10 minutes into the "boil" process of the cooking.

If anybody has any problems trying this, due to the "coonass" part of me and something doesn't make sense, please email me and I'll try to help.
