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.
