Steps to make Sausage and Seafood Gumbo:
- Prepare the onions, celery, bell pepper, and okra in a bowl.
- Add the spices into a small bowl.
- In a skillet, brown the sausage over high heat. If you bought fully cooked sausage, skip this step and go directly to making roux
- Once the sausages are browned, remove them and place on a plate to cool. Don't worry if they're still raw inside.
- Deglaze the pan with a little stock and add it back to the main stock.
- Prepare the roux by adding the oil to a heavy stock pot over high heat.
- When the oil begins smoking sprinkle the flour and begin to whisk the mixture.
- Continue whisking. Do not walk away or your roux will burn. You are looking for a deep red brown color. Be very careful, splashing the roux will severely burn you.
- It's beginning to take color.
- Almost there.
- That's about good. Took roughly 10 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium and add half of the vegetables, dumping away from you to prevent splashing.
- Stir and cook the veggies for 2 minutes.
- Add the remaining veggies, spices, and garlic. Cook another 2 minutes
- Remove the roux from heat.
- Bring the stock to simmer in a large pot.
- Add the roux a spoonful at a time, stirring in between so it's not lumpy.
- Bring the soup to a simmer. Cut the sausage into chunks and add to the gumbo. If you're using chicken, add it here too.
- Simmer for 20 min, or longer to suit your schedule.
- Add the shrimp, crab, and oysters. Cook until the shrimp are pink or about 3 minutes
- Add the parsley, green onion, and gumbo filé. Stir and serve over hot rice.
