Hot cooked rice
1. In a large pot combine flour and oil; cook over medium-low heat about 20 minutes or until mixture is caramel-colored, stirring constantly.
2. Add onion, sweet pepper, celery, and garlic; cook 5 minutes. Skin chicken, if desired. Rinse chicken; pat dry. Add chicken and water to pot along with sausages, salt, ground red pepper, and black pepper. Bring to boiling; reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer about 1 hour or until chicken is tender and no longer pink. Skim off excess fat. Remove chicken pieces from gumbo, if desired.
3. When bones are cool enough to handle, remove meat from bones. Discard bones. Return chicken to pot. Cook 2 to 3 minutes more or until chicken is heated through. Serve over rice. Makes 10 servings.

Where is the okra in the recipe
11/7/2011 08:06:19 AM Report AbuseI agree, where is the okra? and if you add okra, you wouldn't need all that flour! Good gosh that 1 cup of flour is over kill and if you added okra which is what makes the thickening you need then this recipe could be for the gluten intolerant.
11/6/2011 03:54:19 PM Report AbuseHaven't tried the recipe yet but one thing that kind of stands out to me is that in the picture I see Okra. But that is not a listed item in the recipe. Hopefully, that is not the only thing that is missing.
