ABSOLUTELY PERFECT CHICKEN AND SAUSAGE GUMBO
This is my husbands recipe for chicken and sausage gumbo, our 5 daughters will always come for a visit when he makes this, it comes out perfect every time. Secret is in the seasoning, he claims you have to "hammer" it with Tony's, I can't watch him add the seasoning because I thinks he's ruined it, but it comes out just right. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Cut chicken into bite size pieces.
- slice sausage into thin rounds (we like to cut it thin, gives the illusion of more sausage).
- put sausage into large pot and begin to brown on med-high heat to render the juices from the sausage, cook about 10 minutes.
- add chicken and 2 diced onions and continue to brown for about 15 minutes. You really don't have to get it really brown, just get the pink out of the chicken.
- while its cooking, add quite a lot of Tony's, I'd have to say about 2-3 tablespoons.
- Add water and bring to boil over med-high heat (takes awhile) when it starts to boil, add the whole jar of roux and continue cooking on a slow boil for at least an hour.
- Season with more Tony's until you get the flavor you want.
- When serving, add chopped green onions and serve over hot fluffy rice.
- We add file to our individual servings. Enjoy!

CHICKEN AND SAUSAGE GUMBO
This is the most tomato-ey gumbo you'll ever have! I believe it originates from a River Road Recipe cookbook back in the early 2000s. Can be used as a side dish or a main dish.

CHICKEN AND SAUSAGE GUMBO
This is the BEST gumbo I have ever had. (No okra!) Hearty and classic. If you can't find andouille, use a good smoked sausage or kielbasa. The gravy is so rich, have lots of bread to sop it up. A friend gave me this recipe, so I don't know the origin.

Steps:
- Season the chicken with salt, pepper and Creole seasoning.
- Brown quickly.
- Brown the sausage, pour off fat and reserve meats.
- In large, heavy pot, heat the oil and cook the flour in the oil over medium to high heat, stirring constantly, until the roux reaches a dark reddish-brown color, almost the color of coffee or milk chocolate.
- 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 vegetabels 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.
- Serve over rice in large shallow bowls.
- Accompany with a good beer and lots of hot crispy French bread.

SOUTH LOUISIANA CHICKEN AND SAUSAGE GUMBO (NO OKRA!)
Growing up in Louisiana, My momma called her version of this the poor mans gumbo. I have taken the liberty to make a few changes, such as using boneless-skinless chicken breasts instead of the whole chicken. Be careful with the Roux, if it burns you best start all over. It will get smoky in the kitchen, so be sure to open a few windows. This recipe takes some time but it is well worth it. If you have any left overs, this is something that is better the second day. Freezes well too.

LOUISIANA CHICKEN AND SAUSAGE GUMBO(THE REAL STUFF)
I have had several people ask me for an authentic chicken gumbo recipe. This is my attempt at a recipe. I didn't realize it until I sat down the try to type this, I don't know HOW I make gumbo!Gumbo isn't about recipes. I never saw my Maw Maw's recipe because she didn't have one. Gumbo is cooked with instinct and heart. Gumbo is a dish you are taught not something you can make by reading a recipe. My gumbo won't taste like yours and yours won't taste like mine, altough mine tastes pretty similar to Maw Maw's but that is probably because she taught me how to make it when I was about 8. If you have the ability to cook with pinches, dabs and shakes, if you can season, then taste, then season a little more until it tastes right to you, then you can make gumbo using this "recipe". If you can't, you might want to find someone to show you how.

Steps:
- Melt some butter in your heavy bottomed pot.
- Sprinkle your chicken with a lil bit of flour.
- Brown in the butter (about 5 minutes?) Remove.
- In the same pot, using equal parts butter and flour, make your roux.
- (see my recipe list, if you don't know how to do this, it is posted under gumbo base, aka roux) Once the roux has reached the dark chocolate stage, add the onion, bell pepper and celery.
- In Louisiana, this is known as the Holy Trinity, almost every cajun/creole dish begins with this.
- Add some salt, some pepper and a lot of garlic and saute all the veggies for a little while.
- It doesn't matter how long of a little while as long as you don't let it burn.
- Add chicken back into the pot.
- Start adding your water or broth slowly, stirring the whole time.
- You will know when you have enough by how thick or thin your gravy is.
- If you want thinner gravy, more stock, if you want thicker gravy, less stock.
- Season with more salt, more pepper and the cajun seasoning blend.
- Bring just to a boil and lower heat to a simmer.
- Add sausage.
- Allow to cook long enough for the chicken to began to fall of off the bones or until people are hovering over you trying to snitch spoonfuls of it behind your back.
- (about an hour and a half?) Serve over rice.
