EMERIL'S CHICKEN AND ANDOUILLE GUMBO



Emeril's Chicken and Andouille Gumbo image

Recipe courtesy Emeril Lagasse, adapted from Essential Emeril: Favorite Recipes and Hard-Won Wisdom From My Life in the Kitchen, Oxmoor House, 2015, courtesy Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken

Yield Makes 4 1⁄2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 recipe Emeril's Rich Chicken Stock, with reserved chicken meat
1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup all-purpose flour
3 medium onions, chopped
2 ribs celery, finely chopped
3 tablespoons minced garlic
1 green bell pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, plus more to taste
1 1/2 pounds andouille sausage, cut into 1/3-inch-thick rounds
1 1/2 teaspoons salt, plus more to taste
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 bay leaf
1 bunch green onions, thinly sliced
1/3 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Cooked white rice, for serving
Louisiana hot sauce, for serving
File powder, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Make the Rich Chicken Stock and reserve the shredded chicken meat and broth as the recipe instructs. If using it the same day, let the broth cool before starting the gumbo.
  • With the oil and flour, make a roux the color of milk chocolate following the directions opposite.
  • Immediately add the onions, celery, garlic, bell pepper, cayenne, and sausage, and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are softened, 5 to 7 minutes. If the broth has cooled by this time, add it to the roux mixture along with the salt, black pepper, and bay leaf, and bring to a gentle simmer. Continue to simmer, skimming any foam or excess oil that comes to the top, until the sauce is flavorful and thickened to the desired consistency, and any trace of floury taste is gone, about 2 hours.
  • Add the chicken, green onions, and parsley to the gumbo and continue to simmer about 30 minutes longer. Don't stir too much or the chicken will fall apart into shreds. Adjust the thickness, if necessary, by adding water or more broth. Adjust the seasoning with salt and cayenne as needed.
  • Serve the gumbo in shallow bowls over hot white rice. Have the hot sauce and file at the table for guests to use to their liking.

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 to 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
12 ounces andouille sausage, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dredging
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 chicken thighs
2 medium onions, sliced
2 red or green bell peppers, stemmed, seeded and cut into strips
2 ribs celery, chopped
10 ounces fresh or frozen okra, cut into 1/2 inch pieces

1 (15-ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes, with their juice
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
3 scallions (whit and green parts), thinly sliced

Return the chicken and sausage to the pot, bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer, uncovered, 25 to 30 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through. Stir in some additional chicken stock to thin the sauce a bit, if desired.
  • Stir in the vinegar, scallions, and parsley, taste, and adjust the seasoning.

CHICKEN AND ANDOUILLE GUMBO WITH SHRIMP



Chicken and Andouille Gumbo With Shrimp image

Adapted from a Guy Fieri recipe published in More Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. I made a few modifications and added shrimp. This is a fantastic gumbo!!!

Provided by Epi Curious

Categories     Gumbo

Time 2h5m

Yield 6 , 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 1/2-4 lbs chicken thighs (boneless, skinless)
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 cup all-purpose flour
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 celery ribs, coarsely chopped
1 medium vidalia onion, coarsely chopped (can sub yellow onion)
1 green bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and coarsely chopped
8 bay leaves (optional, I did not use and subbed 2 teaspoons Colonel Lee's Chicken and Seafood Seasoning)
1 lb andouille sausage, sliced
1 lb shrimp, cleaned, tails removed
4 cups chicken broth (recommend low sodium, or chicken stock)
1/2 cup green onion, chopped
1/4 cup parsley, chopped (flat leaf)

Steps:

  • Heat a 6-quart pot over medium-high heat. Add the oil. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and fry until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove and set aside, leaving the oil in the pot.
  • To make the roux, reduce the heat to medium and stir the flour into the hot oil, making a thick paste. Cook, stirring, until the roux is the color of dark peanut butter, about 20 minutes. Watch closely and stir constantly because roux are easily burned.
  • Stir in the garlic, celery, onion, bell pepper and bay leaves and let them sweat until the vegetables are soft. Add the andouille, chicken stock and salt and pepper to taste and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1-1/2 hours, stirring occasionally to keep the roux from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
  • While the gumbo simmers, pull the meat from the chicken. Stir it into the gumbo the last 30 minutes or so of cooking, along with the shrimp.
  • Remove the gumbo from the heat, discard the bay leaves (if used) and stir in the green onions and parsley. Serve over rice.

pure smoked pork sausage such as
Polish sausage (kielbasa), cut

Steps:

  • Rub a generous amount of salt, garlic powder and red pepper on each piece. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the onions, bell peppers and celery; set aside. Combine flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon red pepper in a paper or plastic bag. Add the chicken pieces and shake until chicken is well coated.

AUTHENTIC CHICKEN AND ANDOUILLE SAUSAGE GUMBO



Authentic Chicken and Andouille Sausage Gumbo image

In honor of my destroyed city, here is the real New Orleans chicken and sausage gumbo from my childhood. It doesn't get any better than this.

Provided by spaghetti_soprano

Categories     Gumbo

Time 36m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup oil
1 cup flour
2 large onions, chopped
2 bell peppers, chopped
4 celery ribs, chopped
4 -6 garlic cloves, minced
4 quarts chicken stock
2 bay leaves
2 teaspoons creole seasoning
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 large chicken, cut into pieces
2 lbs andouille sausages or 2 lbs smoked sausage, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 bunch scallion, tops only, chopped (green onions)
2/3 cup chopped fresh parsley
file powder

Steps:

  • Season the chicken with salt, pepper and Creole seasoning and brown quickly. Brown the sausage, pour off fat and reserve meats.
  • In a large, heavy pot, heat the oil and cook the flour in the oil over medium to high heat (depending on your roux-making skill), stirring constantly, until the roux reaches a dark reddish-brown color, almost the color of coffee or milk chocolate for a Cajun-style roux. If you want to save time, or prefer a more New Orleans-style roux, cook it to a medium, peanut-butter color, over lower heat if you're nervous about burning it.
  • Add the vegetables and stir quickly. This cooks the vegetables and also stops the roux from cooking further. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, for about 4 minutes.
  • Add the stock, seasonings, chicken and sausage. Bring to a boil, then cook for about one hour, skimming fat off the top as needed.
  • Add the chopped scallion tops and parsley, and heat for 5 minutes. Add file powder to taste just before serving. This also acts as a thickening agent. Serve over rice in large shallow bowls. Accompany with a good beer and lots of hot, crispy French bread.

1 (3 -4 lb) roasting chickens, cut up
1 1/2 tablespoons poultry seasoning
1 cup onion, finely chopped
1 cup green bell pepper, finely chopped
3/4 cup celery, finely chopped
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
vegetable oil (for deep frying)
7 cups chicken stock
1/2 lb sausage (andouille smoked )
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
6 cups cooked rice (hot cooked rice)

Steps:

  • Remove excess fat from the chicken pieces. Rub a generous amount of the Magic Seasoning Blend on both sides of each piece, making sure each is evenly covered. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium-size bowl combine the onions, bell peppers and celery, set aside. Thoroughly combine the flour with 1 tablespoon of the Magic Seasoning Blend in a paper or plastic bag. Add the chicken and shake until pieces are well coated. Reserve ½ cup of the flour.
  • In a large skillet (preferably not a nonstick type) heat 1½ inches oil until very hot (375º to 400º). Fry the chicken pieces until crust is brown on both sides, about 5 to 8 minutes per side; drain on paper towels. Carefully pour the hot oil into a glass measuring cup, leaving as many of the browned particles in the pan as possible. Scrape the pan bottom with a metal whisk to loosen any stuck particles, then return ½ cup of hot oil to the pan. Place pan over high heat. Using a long handled metal whisk, gradually stir in the reserved ½ cup flour. Cook, whisking constantly, until roux is dark red-brown to black, about 3½ to 4 minutes, being careful not to let it scorch or splash on your skin.
  • Remove from heat and immediately add the reserved vegetable mixture, stirring constantly until the roux stops getting darker. Return pan to low heat and cook until vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes, stirring constantly and scraping the pan bottom well. Set aside.
  • Place the stock in a 5½-quart saucepan or large Dutch oven. Bring to a boil. Add the roux mixture by spoonfuls to the boiling stock, stirring until dissolved between additions. Add the chicken pieces and return mixture to a boil, stirring and scraping pan bottom often. Reduce heat to a simmer and stir in the andouille and garlic. Simmer uncovered until chicken is tender, about 1½ to 2 hours, stirring occasionally and more often toward the end of cooking time.
  • When the gumbo is almost cooked, adjust the seasoning if desired with additional amount of Magic Seasoning Blend. Serve immediately.

FRIED CHICKEN AND ANDOUILLE-FILE GUMBO



Fried Chicken and Andouille-File Gumbo image

Provided by Molly O'Neill

Categories     one pot, soups and stews, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 - 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 4-pound chicken, cut up, at room temperature
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 pound spicy andouille or chorizo sausage, cut into 1/2-inch slices
1/4 pound tasso ham, with or without spicy rind, or plain cooked ham, diced
1 large onion, peeled and chopped
1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
3 stalks celery, diced
6 scallions, green and white portions, sliced
3 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
2/3 cup chopped Italian parsley
2 teaspoons dried thyme
2 large bay leaves
1 1/2 to 2 quarts water
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Cayenne pepper or Tabasco sauce to taste
2 tablespoons file powder
2 cups white rice

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a heavy 5-quart pot over medium heat. Add the chicken and brown on all sides. Remove chicken and set aside.
  • Make a roux by blending the flour into the oil in the pot and stirring constantly with a long-handled spoon until the mixture is a deep coffee brown. Add the sausage, ham, onion, green pepper and celery. Saute, stirring, for about 10 minutes. Add the browned chicken, scallions, garlic, parsley, thyme, bay leaves and enough water to cover, stirring to incorporate the roux into the liquid.
  • Stir in salt and pepper and simmer the soup slowly, partly covered, until the chicken is tender, about 1 hour. If you are using the very spicy rind of tasso ham, you will probably not need cayenne or Tabasco. Otherwise, add either toward the end of cooking.
  • Take out the chicken and set aside just until cool enough to handle. Pull off the skin and bones and return the chicken to the soup in large pieces. Adjust seasoning if needed. The soup can be prepared in advance up to this point and stored, covered, in the refrigerator for 2 days. Skim fat from soup.
  • Bring the soup to a simmer. Five minutes before serving, remove from heat and stir in the file powder. Cover and let stand for about 5 minutes. Do not boil the soup after the file has been added. Mound rice in soup plates and ladle the gumbo over.

Categories     Soup/Stew     Chicken     Mardi Gras     Dinner     Sausage     Oyster     Simmer     Dairy Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added

Yield Makes 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 roasting hen (3 to 4 pounds), cut into frying pieces
Salt and cayenne pepper
1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups chopped onions
1 cup chopped green bell peppers
1 cup chopped celery
10 cups chicken broth
2 bay leaves
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1 pound andouille, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch slices
1 pint freshly shucked oysters with the liquor

Steps:

  • Season the hen generously with salt and cayenne pepper.
  • Combine the oil and flour in a large, heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Stirring slowly and constantly, make a roux the color of chocolate. (When I attempted to make my first roux years ago, I remember calling Papa and asking him how long it would take, and he told me "the time it takes to drink two beers." Not being a beer drinker, I had to come up with my own system. I now put on two record albums, and when they have played out my roux is usually just about right.)
  • Add the onions, bell peppers, and celery, and cook, stirring, until they are soft, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Add the chicken broth. (I usually warm it up in a pot just a bit before adding it to the roux mixture.) Stir to blend, and bring to a gentle boil.
  • Add the chicken. (There are those who will tell you to brown the chicken first, but I put it in raw.) Add the bay leaves and thyme, and cook at a gentle boil for 1 hour.
  • Add the andouille and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is very tender, an hour to an hour and a half longer.
  • A few minutes before serving, add the oysters and simmer just until the oysters curl, about three minutes. Adjust seasoning to taste. (If the gumbo becomes too thick during cooking, simply add more chicken broth or water.)

CHICKEN AND ANDOUILLE GUMBO



Chicken and Andouille Gumbo image

OK, this is GUMBO...the word means Okra...and this recipe does indeed include Okra. There are also lots of greens in this version which is lighter than the usual. It's an easy recipe and doesn't take a long time to cook. Serve with some warm crusty french bread for a great meal. I usually make the seasoning mix in larger quantities and store for other uses. You can use frozen greens and okra to make this easier. This recipe uses no oil, so it is lower in fat then other gumbos. It's adapted from Chef Paul Prudhomme's Fork in the Road cookbook.
